FAQ - INFORMATION GOVERNANCE AWARENESS

Frequently Asked Questions

Here are some of the most commonly asked questions that are put to our specialists.

What is information governance training? Information Governance training will help you understand a business’ approach to handling sensitive information in line with the correct laws and legislation. It will help you understand the importance of data protection and confidentiality within the healthcare setting.

Is data security awareness the same as information governance? No, data security awareness refers to trying to change the behaviour of all users so that they take fewer risks because they gain an understanding of how threats might reach them, how incidents can cause real damage and what actions they should take (or avoid) to stay safer. Information Governance refers to how to manage and share information or data appropriately. This includes understanding how to treat information about patients, and if and when you should share that information with others who are involved in that care.
