Dear Information Governance,

Thanks for your response. To clarify, my request applies to both undergraduate and postgraduate students. By 'workshops or lessons,' I mean all formats, including formal classroom-based lessons, practical hands-on workshops, guest lectures, and online modules.

Thanks,
