What laws, regulations, and or state policies require employees to be trained annually and the employee to acknowledge they have received the training by signing an acknowledgement form?
The legal requirement for training is found in the California Information Practices Act of 1977 (Civil Code Sections 1798 et seq.) and specifically Civil Code Section 1798.20, which requires all state agencies to establish rules of conduct for persons involved with personal information and instruct such individuals on the rules and the remedies and penalties for non compliance.
