Most people at Penn have already dealt personally and/or professionally with the challenge of keeping confidential information safe and secure.  Staying abreast of privacy and security risks, and ways to counteract them, is difficult in today’s environment because of the multitude of warnings and rules  that exist about handling information.

For your own personal benefit, as well as for the benefit of Penn’s valued community, we urge all faculty and staff at Penn to take this training.  The training will help each of us to meet the expectations of the students, faculty, staff, alumni, patients, visitors and many others who trust in us to protect the privacy and security of their information.

Taking this training requires approximately 20 – 25 minutes.  To enroll, simply go to the University’s Knowledge Link site, at http://knowledgelink.upenn.edu/welcome/index.html.   Log in using your Penn Key and password; click on “Optional”; then select “Information Privacy and Security at Penn” from the list of available courses.

Thank you for your help in protecting important personal and Penn data – this effort relies on each and every one of us.
