This conference will address how to ensure that the golden age of innovation does not become the dark age of information privacy. Sessions will show how the apparent car crash between innovation and privacy does not need to be a disaster. At one end of the spectrum, innovation can be the enemy of privacy and at the other end, innovation can be an enabler. This conference seeks willingness on both sides to connect with each other in a civilised manner and to find solutions
This course will teach you everything you need to know to be a successful Data Protection Officer as required by the GDPR. The course takes place over four days (one day per week) and involves lectures, discussion and practical exercises. This is followed by a written assessment on day 5. Candidates are then required to complete a project (in their own time) to achieve the certificate.
