Overview
Do you want to gain a deeper understanding of European laws, regulations and policy frameworks? Are you looking for a course that will help you comprehend and apply laws governing data collection, processing and management?
If so, take this two-day course. It’s designed to teach you critical privacy concepts that are integral to the Certified Information Privacy Professional/Europe (CIPP/E) exam. European privacy regulations are some of the strictest in the world, and through this course, you’ll learn how organisations can follow them to a high standard. If you’re a professional seeking an opportunity to expand on your privacy knowledge regarding EU regulations, this course is for you.
The course is also interactive, so you will be encouraged to ask questions throughout, and can share your real-world experiences with other attendees, discussing issues and ideas to help them within their role. You’ll also talk through real-life practice scenarios to aid with your learning, giving you a proper hands-on approach.
When you train with us at DPAS, you’ll get more than just the training. We’ll provide you with free policies, templates, and tools after the course has concluded. We will also supply you with the relevant resources to help you throughout.
