Merthyr Tydfil County Borough Council

Merthyr Tydfil County Borough Council (MTCBC) has worked in partnership with Melanie Oldham and the team at Bob’s Business for five years. The eLearning has been implemented throughout our organisation and has provided a unique approach to raising information security awareness with our staff – educating our staff in a fun and interesting format. Implementing this eLearning has enabled us to provide better protection for our assets by helping our employees recognise and respond appropriately to real and potential security concerns, and providing fresh, updated information to keep our staff current on new risks and what to do about them.

Bob’s Business has been a quick and informal way of educating our staff, it has minimised cost to the organisation and also time that staff would have to spend away from the office if they were to be trained in a classroom environment. It has also saved us money by reducing the number and extent of information security breaches within the organisation.

MTCBC has been so impressed with the success of implementing Bob’s Business eLearning, the professionalism of Melanie and the team and the reasonable cost of the product, that we have requested additional modules be developed in the areas of Data Protection, Freedom of Information, Business Continuity and Information Classification. We look forward to continuing our working relationship with the company.
