CIPP/E – Certified Information Privacy Professional/Europe Training Course

It is essential to offer comprehensive training on the Data Protection Act 1998, referred to as "the Act," and its implications for both organizations and individuals. There are significant differences between the Act and its predecessor, the Data Protection Act 1984. Notably, the Act introduces new obligations concerning manual records and transborder data flows, a revised notification system, and updated principles. Understanding the Act within the broader European context is crucial.

Both seasoned professionals in data protection and newcomers require training to ensure their organizations maintain legal compliance continuously. It is vital to promptly identify issues that necessitate expert advice on data protection to enhance organizational reputation and credibility through effective data protection policies and procedures.
