This online training course on personal data protection focuses on educating employees about the legislation around data protection, with an emphasis on accountability and ownership when it comes to processing and storing personal data.
The European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is the gold standard for protecting the personal data of individuals and is the basis for the best practice principles and rights that you'll explore in this course.
The course enables learners to understand their role in protecting data within their organisation and covers three key areas in detail - data and the new laws/regulations; the principles, rights, and obligations of GDPR; and potential data breaches under GDPR.

Get a QuoteThe Importance of Data Protection Training:
Understanding what data protection regulations, such as the Data Protection Act 2018 and the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), mean for your organisation is the first important step towards compliance. The GDPR which came into force in May 2018 marks the most important change in data privacy regulation in the last twenty years and is regarded as the gold standard for protecting individuals' personal data. Protecting personal data within your organisation requires a culture of accountability so that customers and partners can feel that they have true ownership of their data. Non-compliance with the GDPR could result in heavy fines and damage your organisation's reputation.
