Certified Data Protection Officer (CDPO) Course Overview

The EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) of 2018 requires any organisation that processes the data of EU citizens to appoint a Data Protection Officer (DPO) who is in charge of compliance and protection.

This 1-day specialist course focuses on the knowledge and activity required to effectively carry out the role of DPO. From key data protection approaches to data audits and impact assessments, Certified Data Protection Officer teaches practical methodologies to ensure data is safe and organisations are compliant with this highly important regulation.

Beginning with an introduction to the key ideas of data protection, the course then looks at the role of a Data Protection Officer and how to react to, report and plan for incidents. The course concludes with a look at two important tools in any DPO’s arsenal: Personal Data Audits and Data Protection Impact Assessments. It ends with the CDPO exam, after which delegates will receive their Certified Data Protection Officer certification.
