Think about all the data you hold within a business. You’ll have names and addresses on file, maybe even more sensitive data about staff and customers’ health or personal preferences. In the wrong hands, that kind of information can lead to unwelcome or harmful outcomes, from intrusive marketing to stolen identities.

The GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) exists to safeguard your customers’ data and keep the business accountable. You need to comply with the regulation, spot the relevant issues, minimize the risk, and avoid any penalties. For this, you’ll have to know how to complete a Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA).

By the end of this course, you’ll be able to:

• Identify data held by your business subject to GDPR
• Explain the accountability principle and what your business must do to comply
• Describe how to complete a DPIA

Why take this course?

Getting up to speed with GDPR means you’ll spot any data-compliance weaknesses, find solutions quickly, and build credibility and transparency for the business. So, if you’re a business owner, data protection officer, or senior manager, this course is for you. You’ll learn what data your business holds that’s subject to GDPR, and find out about the accountability principle and how to comply. You’ll also discover how to carry out a DPIA.
