Data protection and data breach notification are no longer a media relations issue or opportunistic PR choice: It is law, with fines amounting up to 4% of the organisation’s worldwide turnover. Not complying to the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) can lead to a financial drain equal to breaking EU Competition Law; a devastating amount for any business. The GDPR affects almost every business that collects or handles the personal data of any European citizen.

Privacy laws & regulations (including GDPR) are increasingly affecting all companies, and Data Protection Authorities are increasingly monitoring their compliance. It is therefore important that your organisation deals with this in the right way. In this course, you will receive an overview of the obligations of your organisation (and of the rights of those from whom you’re collecting personal data). At the end of the course, you’ll be able to translate the law to your daily life and work.

What will you learn?

  • Understand the GDPR through easy explanations, real-world examples and fictive scenarios
  • Get a clear picture of rights and obligations under the GDPR
  • How to translate the law to your daily life and work.

Who should attend?

The Privacy & Data Protection Foundation course is intended for anyone who deals with collecting, editing or managing personal data in their work and / or ensuring its compliance. For example, think of future data protection officers, marketing professionals, call center employees, helpdesks, administrative departments, accountants and financial professionals.
