The 蘑菇短视频 are partners of the who provide a platform for freelancers to complete industry standard essential certification to ensure all their core skills, competencies and compliance knowledge is up to date.
The passport is transferrable between any company enrolled in the scheme meaning as a freelancer you don鈥檛 have to recomplete these modules every time you start a new engagement with a different organisation.
The ScreenSkills passport is designed to ensure freelancers are equipped with important and essential knowledge around:
- Data Protection and Cyber Security
- Safeguarding
