The following tables provide links to various resources (websites, training). The first two table relates to CVA resources, which might be helpful in building a stronger basis for CVA for NS focal points as well as advancing CVA levels. The second two table relates to information management (IM) and data literacy, including data protection in CVA. Both resources include some courses that are hosted outside the IFRC platform. All the online learning platforms referenced are free, however require a sign up with an email address. The course overview will be updated on a running basis as new online training is developed and can be added.
