GDPR Data Protection Officer (DPO) Training

Data Protection Officers need to know more than GDPR and data protection law.

DPOs have a specific role, responsibilities, and tasks to fulfil.

There are things that a DPO must and things they must not do.

This course provides practical steps, to fulfil the legal obligations of a DPO, and help your company comply with its data protection laws.

You will receive advanced information and materials to take back to your business and make immediate improvements.

The course is presented by an experienced DPO and data protection training specialist, with extensive real-world experience of data protection risks, challenges, and opportunities.
