The cycle of a mandatory training#
- Assignment with deadline (from the learning path).
- Completion → signed record with validity in months.
- 30 days before expiry: new cycle, announced once; the employee is reminded.
- The audit report lists every cycle with record code and the reminders.
Included templates: data protection, information security, occupational safety (12 months each), AI competence and equal treatment (24 months each) — each with a legal basis as a suggestion.
Tips#
- The refresher starts by itself 30 days before expiry: a new cycle is assigned and announced once.
