Under the terms of the contract, Mastek and Templar Executives will provide two bespoke training programmes: 
 
SIRO Training: Designed for SIROs and Deputy SIROs, this course will enhance participants’ ability to manage cyber risks effectively, contributing to better clinical, operational, and financial outcomes.
