PDPA e-Assessment Results Guide

Last updated on Feb 01, 2026

1. Purpose of This Guide

This artefact proves that employees have passed the official PDPA e-assessment with a minimum score of 80%, as required under PDPA Data Protection Essentials Clause 5.1.2.

The goal here is simple:

  • Training tells staff what to do

  • The e-assessment proves they actually understood it

Assessors look for clear evidence that PDPA knowledge isn’t just theoretical — it’s been tested and tracked at the organisation level.


2. What You Will Submit

You will upload records from the PDPA e-assessment system showing staff results.

This is usually:

  • screenshot or exported report from the PDPC e-assessment portal

  • Showing multiple employees (not just one)

  • Clearly indicating scores of 80% or higher


3. How to Collect / Obtain This Evidence

Step 1: Ensure staff complete the PDPA e-assessment

Employees must complete the official PDPA e-assessment via the **Personal Data Protection Commission (PDPC)**platform using your organisation’s corporate account.

Each staff member must achieve:

  • At least 80% pass score

Step 2: Access assessment results

  1. Log in to your organisation’s PDPC corporate account

  2. Go to the assessment results / reporting section

  3. View the list of employees and their scores

  4. Confirm that the displayed scores meet or exceed 80%


Step 3: Capture evidence

Take a screenshot (or export a report) that shows:

  • Employee names or identifiers

  • Completion status

  • Scores (with 80%+ clearly visible)

You may redact:

  • NRICs

  • Email addresses

  • Any unnecessary personal identifiers

5. What “Good” Looks Like

Strong PDPA assessment evidence includes:

  • Visible Element: PDPC platform or portal view
    Why it matters: Confirms results are from the official source.

  • Visible Element: Multiple employees listed
    Why it matters: Shows organisation-wide compliance, not one-off training.

  • Visible Element: Scores of 80% or higher
    Why it matters: Directly fulfils Clause 5.1.2 requirements.

  • Visible Element: Completion dates
    Why it matters: Demonstrates training is current and tracked.

If an assessor can quickly see who passed, when, and with what score, you’re done.


6. Tips from Sir Stonk 🗡️

  • Redaction is fine — missing scores are not. Keep pass marks visible.

  • If a staff member didn’t pass initially, include the final passing attempt only.
