WHO THIS IS FOR

Practical decisions in your regulatory context.

Employees of financial entities within DORA’s scope, with company procedures and role-specific learning supplied by the employer.

Digital Operational Resilience Act, Article 13(6)

Article 13(6) covers ICT security awareness and digital operational resilience training for staff and senior management according to their responsibilities. Eligible entities using the Article 16 simplified framework have a separate training provision in Article 16(1)(h). This course teaches staff actions; your company supplies its reporting contacts, approved tools and operating procedures.

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.
