2.6. Training

Effective from 4/7/2021

The maintenance and implementation of an effective SCP requires that all relevant employees and management understand requirements and obligations, policies and procedures, internal control mechanisms, and threats, risks, and vulnerabilities. A robust training program is an integral component of an effective SCP. A training program should:

 Be of a scope and nature proportionate to the LFI’s overall risk profile;
 Be specific to the role carried out by the employee, with tailored training for employees engaged in sensitive roles;
 Provide training to all appropriate employees and personnel upon onboarding in a timely manner and at least annually thereafter;
 Hold employees accountable for training through assessments;
 Include measures to take immediate and effective action to provide corrective training or other corrective actions to relevant personnel upon learning of a confirmed negative risk assessment result or audit finding, or other deficiency pertaining to the SPC.
