figures for the DIMP completion are 79% of the civil service population, the lower
numbers shown against the new suite of courses is reflective of the current transition
period where some staff still hold valid, in date completion of the previous DIMP
course. Individuals with in-date DIMP had up to 3 years currency before needing to
take the replacement courses. All new starters to Defence were mandated to take the
new courses immediately. As staff come to the end of their currency in DIMP and take
the new mandated courses, the latest reporting numbers will increase.</p><p> </p><p>Of
the total 51,911 civilian staff, 79% have a current certificate in mandated DIMP training.
All staff that work with Defence Information must take these mandated courses. The
data related to the new awareness courses is not a true reflection of how many staff
are in date as Defence are transitioning between mandated courses so the data for
both needs to be considered holistically.</p><p> </p>
