Changing Education Group is now Cyber Essentials Certified

The need
Determined to reassure potential clients that the Changing Education Groups commitment to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) remains undiminished, Changing Education???s (CONNECT) Co-founder, Stephen Hackney, turned to the IASME Governance certification for help.

Risk Evolves Partnership Case Study

Winning on all counts
Despite the challenges of coronavirus, Risk Evolves has delivered the project remotely to great success. In early 2021, Changing Education Group secured IASME and Cyber Essentials certifications at the first attempt. These will enhance its credibility and make completing future tenders far less onerous. In the meantime, the team is busy delivering the two new contracts that Helen helped win.

Future plans
Keen to continue the momentum, Stephen has already discussed potential next steps with Helen. He comments, ???As we expand, we believe it is crucial to enrich our processes, practices, and reputation among our peers (who are not IASME certified). We???ll consider implementing ISO27001, the Information Security Management Standard, when Helen and I feel the time is right.???

IASME Governance provides compliance with approximately 80% of ISO27001 so we???re sure that the transition will be a smooth one.

???The internal audit and IASME application has been a positive experience for The Changing Education Group??? made possible by the high-quality support and guidance offered by the Risk Evolves team.???
