Combined GDPR Certificate

Combined GDPR Certificate Course

As the Internet continues to dominate every aspect of our lives, data protection and confidentiality have become crucial issues. There have been several changes in the way companies and organisations store and maintain records. Although the UK has left the EU, the GDPR, or General Data Protection Regulations, remain the same, except for a few minor changes. 

The GDPR laws and rules govern privacy, consent and data protection. However, despite the stipulations provided in the GDPR, the protection and safety of data are still inadequate as many consumers are unaware of the specific rules that apply to the storage and sharing of data. Our online course on GDPR sensitises people to the implications of data breaches and explains data protection, consent and privacy in detail. 

What You Will Learn:

  • The fundamental principles of GDPR, including what the GDPR is, why it came into existence and how it evolved from previous versions 
  • The rules that govern how organisations are allowed to collect, process and store data 
  • How sensitive and highly confidential data should be collected and stored and what counts as a data breach
  • The legal rights every UK resident enjoys under the GDPR 
  • How the GDPR applies to all workplaces and businesses across the UK 
  • The legal risks, liabilities and fines that apply if the GDPR rules are broken 

Benefits of Taking the Course:

  • You can become more aware of your legal rights with regard to the protection of your personal data 
  • If you run a business or work as a manager, you can learn about how to implement data protection measures and techniques to prevent potential breaches of data 
  • If you are an IT professional who works in big data environments, you will be more informed of the rules surrounding data protection and legal rights

GDPR Certificate Course

The GDPR still applies to the UK despite having left the EU.

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has been retained in UK law with only some small changes.

The key principles, rights and obligations remain the same. It is now known as the UK GDPR.

Over the years, the way companies and organisations collect, use and maintain data has changed dramatically. For example, the electronic storage of data is a relatively new concept and one that has not always been adequately addressed by existing legislation.

Experts believe that the GDPR is one of the most important pieces of data protection legislation drafted in recent times.

It is important that everyone involved in the collection, storage and processing of personal data be aware of the GDPR and its implications.

This course is an introduction to the scope and purpose of the GDPR.

You Will Learn:

  • What the GDPR is, why it was introduced, when it came into effect, its relationship to previous legislation and who must comply with the new rules.
  • The principles underlying the GDPR, the bases on which an organisation is permitted to collect and process data and how the GDPR makes provision for the handling of highly sensitive personal information.
  • The rights granted to individuals under the GDPR and what this means for organisations who collect and process data.

Benefits of Taking This Course:

  • If your job entails the regular collection, storage or handling of personal data, this course will provide you with an invaluable introduction to your obligations under the GDPR.
  • If you own a business, this course will help you understand when and how you may collect data from clients and consumers and process it in a lawful manner.
  • If you work in a management role, this course will help you advise members of your team with regard to handling and processing consumer data.
  • If you are responsible for implementing data handling and processing policies at your place of work, this course will give you a good starting point from which to draft them.
  • If you are interested in consumer rights and privacy law, the information in this course will be of general interest to you.

 

GDPR in the Workplace Course

The GDPR still applies to the UK despite having now left the EU. The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has been retained in UK law with only some small changes.

The key principles, rights and obligations remain the same. It is now known as the UK GDPR.

In this course, 'GDPR' refers to both the EU and UK GDPR. Where the information relates specifically to the UK or EU GDPR, this will be referred to as UK GDPR or EU GDPR. The GDPR, or General Data Protection Regulation, is an important part of EU/UK and international law.

This regulation protects the personal data of citizens, outlining the ways that businesses are responsible to store, protect and process it.

The goal of this course is to give you a deep understanding of the legislation itself, as well as how it may apply to any business that you work in.

Although the GDPR is implemented officially in the EU & the UK, it is actually a respected regulation all over the world. Not to mention, any international business that deals with the data of EU/UK citizens is still expected to adhere to these regulations.

In this course, you will learn about all the necessary definitions within the GDPR as well as how to properly comply with it.

You Will Learn:

  • About what the GDPR is and how it applies to people and business-owners across the world.
  • About when the GDPR was introduced and implemented, as well as what it aims to protect.
  • The main principles of the GDPR.
  • About what each principle governs and how it is monitored by law and regulation.
  • About the risks, fines and penalties for non-compliance of the GDPR.

Benefits of Taking This Course:

  • You will understand the importance of the GDPR as it relates to businesses and clients.
  • You will be able to prove your understanding of the GDPR on a CV and show potential employers that you understand this important piece of regulation.
  • Understand what data is and the different types of data governed by the GDPR
  • Understand how you and your workplace are held accountable legally for upholding the GDPR.
  • Understand the fines relating to the GDPR and the benefits of adhering strictly to these regulations.

Great Course! Arrived very quickly on the same day I ordered it - Amazing Service! I can’t wait to get the certificate at the end so I can show my customers that I have under pinned my knowledge and experience by gaining a qualification that is fully accredited. It is so important to keep fully up to date with skill and learning since everything is constantly changing i.e. the law, people’s requirements and to refresh ones’ knowledge is paramount in today’s challenging job market. We need to be one step in front and a head of our competitors if we are to succeed. Thanks You for helping me achieve this.

Very enjoyable and informative course which covered all aspects of dog grooming, managing the business side and history of dog grooming. What I liked most was being able to do the course at my own pace, revisiting modules as required to gain a complete understanding of what I was learning.

I found the video tutorials very helpful and was able to give my own dog a professional cut after watching them.

On the one occasion I forgot my password online help were very prompt in helping me . I would highly recommend this course. Good value for money.

Thank-you New Skills Academy!

This course is really good. Easy to read and I found it really enjoyable and interesting as it was full of facts and information relating to the course.

It is nicely broken up into sections with short tests at the end and it doesn’t feel too overwhelming, feels very manageable.

I especially like that there is no time limit on completing this course, being a full time mum of two small children my life is pretty hectic so it’s great that whenever I get half an hour free I can sit and do as much or as little as I want.

Lauren Jones

I was a bit apprehensive about doing this course online but I needn't have worried. I was able to work through the modules at my own pace.

The course material was easy to understand and had some really useful and practical information and advice such as choosing a name for your business and the pitfalls of working from home.

I'm really, really glad I did this course as I am a home baker and it has provided lots of useful knowledge and tips to take my business forward.

The course has definitely given me the confidence to take my hobby to the next level.

Thank you

I can honestly say that I have truly enjoyed learning about Microsoft Excel.
The step by step modules (36 of them!), breaking down each part of Excel was easy to understand and absorb. The explanations of each stage was handy for notes as well. The videos were helpful for directions and practise. The worksheets were helpful to put learning into action.
The test at the end was very good in covering many aspects of Excel, however I would have liked to know what I did not get correct. This would have been helpful.
However, I would gladly use a New Skills Academy course again.
