Workshops and training courses
Would you like to request a training course for your team or meeting? Leiden University offers basic training courses suitable for all employees as well as specific training courses focused on the unique risks within your department or team.
Basic training courses
To work safely and with an awareness of privacy, you need some basic knowledge. For example, how do you recognise phishing emails, and how do you deal with potential data breaches? We offer general training courses that cover the basics and explain some basic concepts. These are recommended for all employees: as a refresher course or as training for new employees.
Not sure where to start when it comes to security and privacy? No need to panic. In this training course we make sure that you have the most important basics in place. We do this based on the five checks for working securely.
This training course is full of tips that you can put into practice immediately. It can also be used as onboarding for new employees, as it covers the most important security and privacy topics.
