FREE SPECIAL EVENT
DCJ Information Security Forum for ACWA Members
March 28th

The security of our information systems has been under an increased level of public scrutiny lately and there have been breaches of privacy in not-for-profit organisations, adding an extra layer of stress for our clients.
The DCJ Capability and Practice team will be the main speakers at this forum. During the presentation you will:
- Gain a better understanding of the cyber security landscape
- Knowledge of simple strategies to implement that increase individual worker and organisational cyber security
- Provide some useful cyber security resources
DCJ’s presentation will be followed by speakers who will provide you with further strategies and resources. This forum is free and we look forward to seeing you there.

You will be sent an invitation by MS teams to your email address as soon as you register your interest to attend.
Do you feel that your team could have better digital skills but aren't sure exactly what they should be able to do?
The Australian Digital Capability Framework organises 21 components of digital capability into five digital focus areas and describes how these capabilities are demonstrated by our workforce at different proficiency levels. While this Framework was written specifically for VET sector educators, you can also use this tool to identify the skills that your team needs, and then assess each team member to pinpoint areas where additional training and support might be needed.
This document is an
explanation of the
Framework and the
five focus areas.
