Accredited training course (EXIN) & certification exam
Each organization is affected by the regulations and laws relating to the protection of personal data and, more generally, to data protection. Organizations must be more diligent in respecting compliance to protect personally identifiable information (PII) as the penalties for data loss become more and more severe. This intensive two-day course provides an overview of the rights and obligations of your organization and those whose personal information you have collected, allowing you to make appropriate decisions about how to handle personally identifiable information and other data.
This intensive two-day course will quickly go through legal jargon to focus on the fundamentals of protecting personal data and how it affects your organization. This course will give you a good overview of your responsibilities in this domain.
Audience
The course Privacy & Data Protection Foundation (EXIN) is intended for anyone who collects, modifies, processes or manages personal information for their work, or who needs to know their legal responsibilities regarding the use of personal information. Interested roles may include employees of a call center, service center or any administrative department, accountants and finance professionals.
This course is the mandatory entry point for all those wishing to obtain the Privacy & Data Protection Practitioner certificate or to become a Certified Data Protection Officer.
The Privacy & Data Protection cycle is aligned with European legislation and regulations and more particularly with the GDPR.
Prerequisites
There are no mandatory prerequisites to follow this training and pass the certification. It is however desirable to already have a certain legal culture to understand the wording of the texts and to have read before the start of the session the training preparation guide sent to each candidate at the time of registration.
Objectives
At the end of the two days of training, each participant will know and understand:
- European legislation, regulations and directives on the protection of personal information,
- Confidentiality issues that may arise in one's own Organization,
- How to provide advice to resolve information privacy issues.
PLEASE NOTE: This course provides you with an ideal introduction to understanding Data Protection and Privacy and constitutes an effective preparation for the certification exam Privacy & Data Protection Foundation. However, this is only a first step towards the implementation of initiatives based on the European requirements contained in the GDPR. It is by no means sufficient to carry out an implementation or an audit in matters of Protection of Personal Information, which requires additional skills developed in the PDP Practitioner and PDP Expert courses. We can help you build your own roadmap to achieving these goals. Do not hesitate to consult us without obligation on this subject.
