Which employee trainings are legally required?
Depending on sector and role: data protection (GDPR), occupational safety instructions, information security (e.g. NIS2 for in-scope entities), whistleblower protection and, since 2025, AI literacy under Art. 4 of the EU AI Act. What matters alongside delivery is documented evidence.
How often does mandatory training have to be repeated?
Occupational safety instructions are due at least annually, and most awareness and privacy trainings follow the same yearly rhythm; some duties are also triggered by new tasks, equipment or incidents. The cadence belongs in a training plan, not in someone’s memory.
How do I prove training in an audit?
Evidence is audit-ready when it shows participant, content, date and assessment per person: tamper-evident and exportable. Spreadsheets routinely fail on completeness; an LMS with certificates and an audit trail replaces exactly that manual work.
What does the EU AI Act require from companies in 2025/2026?
Since 2 February 2025, the AI literacy duty (Art. 4) applies to professional AI use; since 2 August 2026, the transparency duties of Art. 50 cover AI-generated content and chatbots. Both are pragmatically met with training plus documented evidence.
