Naomi Korn Associates has devised a Certified programme of practical training courses in Copyright, Data Protection and Information Governance. Our courses are for anyone working in cultural heritage, arts and the creative industries as well as the charity, education, public and private sectors. Courses have been created for participants with responsibility for legal compliance, information governance and asset use within their organisation, or those who want an essential overview. Each course can be taken individually, or those interested can choose to undertake our Essentials, Intermediate and Advanced Certificates. Please find further information about our Essentials and Intermediate Certificates below, whilst information regarding our Advanced Certificates will follow in September 2024.
Participants can achieve Certification in Copyright and Data Protection (or a combination of the two topics) by attending bundles of courses, offered at a discounted rate.
These bundles are comprised of a combination of mandatory and elective training courses. For more information on mandatory and elective courses and learning pathways click here.
Essential training courses deliver a practical introduction to the topic and are pitched at a beginner’s level. They provide participants with a broad overview of the topic, covering terminology and the main issues and challenges with clear examples and case studies to illustrate key concepts.
Our courses are ideal for participants who are new to the topic or seeking a refresher. Participants may be early-career or have recently assumed responsibility for this area of work within their organisation. The subject will be relevant to their role, or they are keen to expand their knowledge to help their organisation develop greater expertise in the subject.
