Hey everyone,

After close to a decade in law enforcement as a Police Officer, I’ve just landed a role at a major university focusing on data governance and regulatory compliance.

I’m confident in my investigative and evidence-gathering skills, but the transition from a 'responder' environment to a 'preventative' academic one feels like a big shift, and to say I am feeling a little anxious, would be an understatement. Luckily, I am not completely new to ‘audits’ — as it’s a huge part of the specific work I do within my organisation.

I’m looking for some 'in-the-trenches' advice from the community or 'I wish I knew this' tips for a newcomer!
