GDPR Certificate
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.

The course was clearly set out with helpful end of week tests which built my knowledge. Being dyslexic I found the course was set out in an easy to understand way. I was able to pass the test on my first attempt. The downloaded pdf are a useful resource that you can keep forever. Looking forward to the next course
