Learning materials and methods, with boundaries
Workforce, training & education
Training content, assessment design, teaching methods and expert corrections can preserve useful knowledge. Personal learner, candidate and employee files require a very different level of care.
Discuss records in this sectorPeople & services
What can be learned from the method without exposing the individual?
We begin with non-personal resources and material with clear reuse rights. Records involving children, safeguarding, recruitment or individual performance are not a routine archive intake.

Relevant records
Look beyond
the final file.
What was known, what was decided, what happened and what the evidence shows.
The examples below are categories to discuss. Existence, rights, suitability and buyer requirements still need to be established.
Assessment design
Permitted rubrics, question-development histories and corrections, with exam security and licensing restrictions explicitly considered.
Workforce services
Non-personal operating processes and job-framework material, distinguished from applicant records, shortlists, employee data and recorded calls.
Potential uses, not promised demand
What might an AI team investigate?
- Evaluating retrieval from authorised learning resources.
- Researching how expert corrections improve instructional material.
- Testing structured workflow assistance without making individual hiring, admission or performance decisions.
Any actual recipient, purpose and permitted use must be agreed. These are research and evaluation possibilities, not confirmed buyers, available datasets or claims of proven AI performance.
Before anything is shared
The boundaries
are part of the work.
- Do not send children’s, learner, candidate or employee information, safeguarding records or call recordings.
- Copyright, course licensing, examination security, consent and employment-related confidentiality all need review.
- A record of learner performance is not a licence to reuse it. Removing names does not necessarily make a record anonymous.
McKays does not promise that redaction or anonymisation will make material suitable. Detailed review, preparation responsibilities and any specialist advice must be agreed separately.

A useful first enquiry
Start with a description.
Not the archive.
Describe the training or service area, non-personal resource types, authorship, archive dates and the person who can confirm reuse terms.
Paper, digital and mixed archives can be discussed. Approximate answers are fine. Mention your role, who can authorise a review and any practical deadline.
Prepare an enquirySend a non-confidential enquiry through the website. No archive files are uploaded.
