We are delighted to announce the launch of our new GDPR training for vet teams, delivered through TPLight. Giving all vet practice teams, relevant GDPR training and a simple way to evidence compliance.
We are excited to have partnered with multi-award-winning data protection specialists CVG Solutions to create a suite of veterinary-specific GDPR training modules for UK practices—making GDPR training easy, relevant, and truly effective.
The six bite-sized e-learning modules, are designed help practices stay compliant with the requirement to regularly train all team members. However, their real value lies in their direct relevance to everyday veterinary workflows. By focusing on real scenarios and data-handling habits inside veterinary teams, the modules move GDPR training from a box-ticking exercise to a practical tool for reducing risk and improving client trust in the practice.
Suitable for practices of all sizes, the programme includes two learning streams:
Vet Team Stream:
Clear, accessible lessons for every team member—from kennel assistants to practice owners—covering core GDPR principles and typical data processes relevant to their role within the veterinary practice.
Vet Leadership Stream:
A more comprehensive set of lessons for practice leaders. Looking into policies, processes, and data management, giving practice managers and owners the confidence to lead their practice safely and compliantly.
Non-compliance with GDPR—including failure to train team members regularly—can lead to fines of up to £17.5 million or 4% of annual turnover, making accessible, relevant training essential for all practices.
As providers of structured veterinary training for 10 years, we are regularly asked for GDPR training written specifically for vets. Generic courses simply aren’t relevant enough to change behaviour. Our modules address the real issues that occur in practices every day—issues that cause stress, risk client trust, and can lead to significant consequences with the ICO
Praise for GDPR training for vets
In the past GDPR training has seemed like a tick box exercise but now, with a course tailored to the needs of veterinary practices, veterinary leaders are finding that the training is changing the awareness and behaviours of their team, actively reducing their risk.
“The training was engaging, relevant and concise and the feedback from the team stated that they found it enjoyable, enlightening, and relevant to their day-to-day roles. Having undertaken the training, the team have all made commitments to ensure that we are delivering on our GDPR requirements and fully understand the need to report any breaches or near misses. This has allowed us as a company to find problem areas and make changes to make our processes even more robust.
The training has been an integral part of team engagement and advancement of our processes, I would recommend CVG solutions’ training to anyone in the Veterinary field who is looking to further their team’s awareness and engagement around GDPR.”
Training-Progress taster
The training modules are delivered through a Light version of Training-Progress which means that the practice can augment the training with their own relevant SOPs and in-house training. The Training-Progress system also allows for simple tracking and evidence of training for compliance purposes.
Users also have limited access to the Training-Progress system so they can experience first hand the convenience of integrated document management and training management. Streamline onboarding, ease change management and make compliance easy.
