Course Overview

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a comprehensive data protection and privacy regulation. The regulation aims to ensure transparency, accountability, and the lawful processing of personal data while empowering individuals with greater control over their information. 

GDPR imposes obligations on data controllers and processors, introducing measures such as privacy by design, data protection officers (DPOs), and certifications to promote compliance and protect individuals from privacy breaches. Non-compliance with GDPR can lead to substantial fines, making it crucial for businesses to understand and adhere to its key principles. As a business, privacy, and GDPR might sound like an unnecessary burden to the organization; for this particular CPE webinar, there are two main categories of data protection compliance you need to understand: what's in theory and what's in practice. GDPR is pushing a lot of organizations to move from a theory, checklist approach, to a more active role.

Key topics covered in this course:

  • Main features of GDPR

  • Demonstrate compliance with GDPR

Join this CPE Information Technology webinar it will guide you to approach the GDPR from a business angle, with a pragmatic approach that could help your business to take advantage of some of the ideas being introduced by this regulation.
