Advent IM’s Police IAO Essentials course is a 2-hour introduction tailored for new policing IAOs, covering core responsibilities and preparing them for further training.
Introducing IAO Essentials: Foundational Training for Police Forces
Police forces that have decided to implement IAOs already know how important this role is, but people new into the role need a solid grounding in the basics, to build understanding and confidence. That is where our IAO Essentials course comes in. This course is about bridging the early knowledge gaps, helping set expectations and laying down the next step on the IAO education journey to success and high standards of information asset ownership.
