Description
In April of 2016, the European Commission published a data protection package to reform, modernize and harmonize European data protection law. The cornerstone of the package is the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) which will replace the 1995 Data Protection Directive and, in the UK, the Data Protection Act 1998. This overview highlights the key themes of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) to help organizations understand the new legal framework in the EU. It is for those who have day-to-day responsibility for data protection.
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) Fundamentals course is designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of the principles and requirements of the GDPR, which is a legal framework governing data protection and privacy within the European Union (EU) and the European Economic Area (EEA).
It is important to note that the GDPR is a complex legal framework, and seeking legal advice or consulting specialized professionals is recommended for comprehensive and tailored guidance related to GDPR compliance in specific contexts or industries.
While no specific prerequisite is mandatory, to effectively engage with and benefit from the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) course, participants should ideally have a basic understanding of data protection concepts, privacy principles, and the legal framework surrounding data privacy.
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) course is relevant to a wide range of individuals and professionals who handle or are responsible for the processing of personal data within organizations.
