Basic GDPR and Privacy Training
What is permitted and what is not when handling personal data? In ninety minutes, an experienced consultant explains what the GDPR requires of your organisation. In plain language, using practical examples.
What you will learn
The GDPR, clearly explained
Not a legal lecture, but a practical training session. We review the most important components of the GDPR, so you know what is expected of you and what you can start working on tomorrow.
After this training
- You will know what the GDPR requires of your organisation
- You will recognise a data breach and know what actions to take
- You will understand the rights of data subjects and how to handle requests
- You will know when a DPIA is mandatory
The basics
What is privacy, where do the rules originate, and what types of personal data exist?
What the GDPR requires of you
The register of processing activities, appropriate technical and organisational measures, and the role of the DPO.
When things go wrong
How to recognise and handle a data breach, and the rights that data subjects have.
Further compliance
When you need a DPIA, the rules for data outside the EU, and how a privacy management system can help.
// The GDPR in practice
But I have nothing to hide, right?
We hear that often. But privacy is not about what you hide. It is about what you protect: the data of your customers, patients, and employees. And there are clear rules for that.
Target audience

The training starts with the basics. No prior knowledge is required.
