WHO THIS IS FOR
Practical decisions in your regulatory context.
ICT, security, risk, compliance, continuity and supplier-management practitioners at in-scope financial entities.
Digital Operational Resilience Act, Articles 6–15, 17–30 and 13(6)
This programme develops operational judgement under DORA’s general framework and flags the separate Article 16 simplified framework. It connects role-specific learning under Article 13(6) with implementation and evidence. Apply the regulatory technical and implementing standards, current reporting templates and supervisory instructions relevant to your entity; this course is not a substitute for that implementation work.

LEARNING THAT LEAVES A RECORD
Practise, assess and document completion.
Apply the decisions
Work through role-relevant situations, explain your reasoning and connect the learning to your company’s procedures. Progress is saved as you complete each module.
Keep named evidence
After the module checks, written exercises and a passing assessment, receive a named certificate showing the course version and result. Administrators can export company completion reports and individual certificates.
Lessons and assessment are in English. Written responses are retained, not independently graded. Duration and the pass mark are Academy choices, not statutory thresholds. Completion is not accreditation or proof of organisational regulatory compliance.
