Communication Data Trainer
Full-Time
Job Description
The NCA has adopted an Officer-centred, blended model to align learning within the Agency to the National Strategic Assessment and NCA Annual Plan. The model is a significant shift from predominantly classroom-based courses to alternative delivery methods that support sustainable learning outcomes for officers and encourage self-directed, experiential and social learning to enhance educational activities.
Learning needs within the Agency are very broad in scope. Internally delivered programmes include our Operational Development Programme (ODP), a full range of niche and specialist operational and systems training directly related to fighting serious and organised crime, as well as more generic programmes covering interpersonal skills, leadership, management and inclusion, diversity and equality.
This is a dynamic role; working as part of the Communications Data Training Team you will be responsible for designing and delivering a range of courses that cover this complex and dynamic area to new and existing officers to enable them to use Communications Data to enable the NCA to lead the UK’s fight to cut serious and organised crime (SOC).
The Communications Data Training Team lead on training NCA operational staff on how to correctly apply for communications data (CD) as required under the Investigatory Powers Act 2016 (IPA 2016). You will train officers on how to analyse data under legislation and how it supports investigations into Serious Organised Crime (SOC).
The team also works with other training colleagues delivering areas such as operational management training or analysis training to make sure relevant learning on CD is being given to those that need it. The use of CD is a changing and dynamic area and this training team is a key part in enabling the NCA’s operational staff have the skills and knowledge they need to operate against SOC that is heavily reliant on the Internet.
Please note: Due to variations in course requirements, alternative working arrangements will be considered on a case by case basis in line with business needs.
