Training researchers who want to access confidential, legally controlled data in data protection and statistical disclosure is a key part of ensuring the safe use of these data and an important task for secure data facility professionals. But developing suitable training materials can be resource intensive. We have developed a set of canonical training materials that cover a wide range of relevant topics from understanding data access, the Five Safes framework to key statistical disclosure control principles. These materials are designed to be used by a wide range of safe data access facilities to form the basis of their researcher training programme. We have designed these materials so that individual facilities can adapt the content to suit the needs of their service and researchers with minimal additional resource requirements.
