NDU needs its faculty, staff and students to be at the top of their game when it comes to privacy and safeguarding PII. Training, refreshers and reminders such as well-placed posters and handily available brochures help NDU system users to stay in compliance and up-to-date on these important issues.

NDU Students

NDU requires all students to complete privacy training before they are granted access to NDU Information Systems (IS). Student training is delivered via the annually updated DoD Cyber Awareness Challenge course (US1364-19) in the Joint Staff's Joint Knowledge Online (JKO) learning management system. 

In addition, all students receive an in-person briefing on Privacy, Data Usage and Protecting PII as a part of their orientation during student in-processing.
