Data protection compliance is an essential legal requirement for all organisations. Since the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) came into force in May 2018, it is more vital than ever that everyone who works with personal data understands the laws and acts in compliance, as the penalties can be severe.
Our online courses are perfect for helping you to improve knowledge, boost your CV, and progress your career. You can choose from an excellent range of subjects.
We'll also provide you with an online support assessor, so you won't be left on your own to figure it all out for yourself. Your support assessor will always be on hand to guide and steer you in the right direction and give you feedback on your assignments.
