Course Overview

The GDPR will provide extensive and rigorous privacy laws concerning personal data, across all European Union (EU) member states. It shall replace the individual, personal laws of each EU country and instead provide a uniform, universal directive for all of the EU. Full compliance of all organisations within the EU, and all organisations dealing with EU citizen’s data or providing good and services to them, is imperative. It replaces the Data Protection Directive 95/46/EC and is far more thorough and prescriptive. The GDPR is in place to prevent breaches of security and protect against the loss of personal data by organisations who are in possession or hold Personal Identifiable Information (PII).

The GDPR will come into full effect on the 25^th May 2018, however it is crucial that organisations train the appropriate personnel, prior to it coming into effect, to ensure that they are not in breach, which will carry hefty fines. This online GDPR course, ensures that your organisation can train all the necessary personnel within the appropriate time.
