8. Staff Communication & Training This policy will be made available to staff through the Intranet and for others who are within the scope of the policy through the Highland Council website. As part of the core training, staff and any person handling Council information are provided with an online learning module that provides an introduction to the expectations the Council places on those handling information. This includes the records management as well as the information security and data protection issues of which all staff should be aware. All staff must complete the information management online learning module and managers must ensure that this has been completed by their staff and is part of employee review and development. Any other person handling Highland Council information must also complete this training and the relevant Information Asset Owners and Manager within the Council responsible for the contract must ensure this takes place. Further online learning modules related to records management may be provided to staff and these must be completed where they are relevant to their role. Staff will be informed when they must complete these additional training modules. A specific online learning module has been provided and is mandatory for Information Asset Owners and Information Asset Managers. 9. Review This policy will be reviewed on a regular basis and adapted appropriately to ensure that it continues to meet the business and service delivery requirements of the Highland Council.
