Make sure you save the date for our next day of free webinars September 23rd

Summary: A jargon-free introduction to the who, what, where when and why of data privacy.

Suitable for: The uninitiated!

The recording from the webinar on the 27th May is available now. Follow the link to register and access the free Webinar: Data Privacy: The Basics

What you’ll learn

You’re invited to celebrate GDPR’s third birthday by getting to grips with the GDPR and the UK Data Protection Act.

During this interactive session we will explore the basics and put some myths to bed for once and for all.

Session summary

This session will help you identify what you need to do and why.

At the end of 30 minutes, you’ll understand:

  • How to ‘do the right thing’ without wasting hours trying to work out what the ‘right thing’ is
  • How you can protect data
  • Why compliance is so important to your business (including the benefits)
  • The importance of reassuring clients and staff

Will this help me?

Yes, if you’re newly employed, self-employed or considering setting up your own business.

Is the event free?

It’s completely free and we promise that there will be no hard sell.

How long will it last?

We’re data protection geeks but we’re going to do our best to limit each webinar to just 30 mins. Don’t worry about ‘death by PowerPoint’, we’re experienced in making the most complicated subjects engaging and interactive.

What other training do you offer?

We’re running five other training sessions on this day. There are two other training sessions in the morning about data protection and three sessions on IT in the afternoon.

Do I need to prepare anything?

We’d recommend having a notebook to hand and a cup of tea. Other than that, you don’t need to do anything!
