In 2018, new regulations come into force intended to give individuals greater control over how organisations use their data. The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) will affect how charities work with data and look after this valuable information. The new laws are more detailed and carry the potential for hefty financial penalties. We recommend you plan for this now. This course will be your first step toward becoming GDPR compliant.
This interactive course will help you understand and implement your data processing in terms of storage, access, what you do if there is a data breach and training your staff.
By the end of the day you will have:
Where?
The Orange Room, Voluntary Action LeicesterShire, Leicester, LE1 5SN
Who should attend?
Whatever type of organisation you may be, if you process personal data you will need to be GDPR compliant. This would include anyone within an organisation that handles or processes the personal data of staff, service users, beneficiaries, volunteers, customers, members and supporters. If you process special category data such as health, sexual orientation and religious beliefs or children's data this course will help to guide you through your extra responsibilities you have under the new legislation.
This course will also be suitable for individuals that procure services from third parties where personal data is shared.
I came here knowing very little about GDPR. I now feel confident to share what I have learnt today with my colleagues.

Clear, concise and sufficiently detailed for an introduction. Pointed me to additional resources as required and fantastic knowledge from the trainer who was happy to address questions. A very informative and interesting day.

The content matter was well thought out, clear and concise. All aspects of what I was looking to find out about were covered.
