Good data protection starts with everyday decisions
Healthcare teams handle highly sensitive information every day: patient records, contact details, prescriptions, test results and billing information.
Botswana's Data Protection Act places responsibilities on organisations to make sure employees understand how personal information should be handled.
TheDataSubject turns those requirements into short, practical scenarios your team can apply during their normal working day.
Why it matters
The Act also provides significant penalties for serious non-compliance, making staff awareness an important part of your broader data protection programme.
Who is this for
Private clinics
Doctors, GPs and their teams handling patient data every day.
Pharmacies
Retail and dispensing staff making data decisions on the spot.
Dental practices
Dentists and orthodontists managing records, X-rays, and billing details.
Laboratories
Medical and diagnostic labs handling deeply private results.
Practical situations your team already faces
The kind of everyday moments your scenarios are built around.
A patient asks for someone else's medical records
Results are accidentally emailed to the wrong person
A staff member uses WhatsApp to share patient information
A patient asks to see their personal information
A laptop or phone containing patient data is lost
Someone asks how long patient records should be kept
How it works
Getting your team trained is simple.
Add your team
Create your account and add your employees.
We get everyone started
Once payment is confirmed, each employee receives their training invitation.
Track completion and download certificates
Staff complete three short scenarios each weekday. You can monitor progress and keep each employee's certificate when they finish.
Spaced out for better retention
Each employee gets three new scenarios every weekday, spread across two working weeks. This is based on the spacing effect, a well-established finding in learning research showing that information is retained far better when it's spaced out over time, rather than delivered all at once. Short, regular sessions help the training actually stick, instead of becoming a once-off exercise your team forgets within days.
Built for Botswana organisations
Developed by data protection professionals with practical experience implementing privacy programmes and interpreting Botswana's Data Protection Act.

Frequently asked questions
Instead of a single workshop or a day out of the clinic, training is spread across 14 weekdays, 3 scenarios a day, Monday to Friday. It fits into the working day in small pieces rather than pulling your team away from patients for an extended stretch.
We space scenarios out deliberately. Research on the spacing effect shows that learning spread over time is retained much better than the same material crammed into one sitting. Three short scenarios a day, over two weeks, helps the training actually change day-to-day habits, not just get completed and forgotten.
New scenarios only unlock on weekdays. Nothing new appears over the weekend, but anything already unlocked stays available indefinitely. If you miss day 3's scenarios, you can complete them on day 4, over the following weekend, or whenever suits.
You can't get ahead of the schedule, though: day 9's scenarios aren't available until day 9 arrives, even if you're caught up on everything before it.
Yes. You can try a free sample scenario before signing up, so you can see exactly what your team will experience. No account or payment required.
Each scenario takes about 3 minutes. There are 40 in total, delivered 3 a day on weekdays, so the full course completes in 14 days. Staff can train on any device and pick up where they left off.
Each employee earns an individual certificate on completion. It’s specific to them and valid for 12 months. You also get full progress reports so you can see exactly who has finished and who is still working through the course.
You pay by bank transfer. After you sign up and submit your payment confirmation, we verify it within 1 business day. Your employees receive their training invites as soon as payment is confirmed.
We collect each employee’s name, email address, and training progress. We don’t collect any patient data. Your employees’ training records are handled in line with the Data Protection Act.
