With healthcare staff often expected to complete training on an annual basis there will be topics you will be more familiar with than others. Our self assessment tool, which is at the start of each course, will allow you to test your knowledge to see if you would like to complete the training or progress straight to the end of course test.
At the end of this information governance and data security course, you will need to complete a test that consists of multiple choice questions. Learners are required to achieve an 80% pass mark, and – if necessary – may attempt the test six times at no extra cost. If learners do not achieve the pass mark, further attempts may be given by contacting our support team.
