Course Introduction

What employees do on the internet, email and social media can directly affect them individually, as well as the organisation. Inappropriate use, whether intentional or unintentional, could leave the organisation vulnerable to data breaches, cyberattacks, reputational damage, productivity loss, and financial, civil and criminal penalties. Employees could be subject to disciplinary action, as well as financial and legal penalties for unacceptable use.

To help avoid this, employees must appropriately use the organisation’s IT facilities (eg networks that include private intranets and public internet), software and equipment (eg PCs, laptops, tablets, smartphones).

This Internet, Email and Social Media Online Training course takes on average 30 minutes to complete.

Course Content

The EssentialSkillz Internet, Email and Social Media course helps employees understand their responsibilities for internet, email and social media use. They will learn what online activities are unacceptable, such as internet for personal use, defamation, discrimination and copyright infringement. The course describes how they can protect the organisation’s systems and data from cybercrime or employee data breaches, for example by using strong passwords, being aware of phishing emails, keeping browsers and operating systems up to date, and securing equipment inside and outside the office.

Like all EssentialSkillz courses, the Internet, Email and Social Media eLearning course can be customised to meet your needs, enabling your workforce to understand the specific policies and procedures developed for your organisation. A designated course administrator can edit the text and images within the course, and link to organisation-specific documentation, all at no extra cost.
