Ex Police Data Protection Officer Brings DPA Compliance to Life

Data loss in both public and private sectors is all over the media, and the governance of personal information now keeps company directors awake at night. This has been raised so far up the public agenda that the Information Commissioner (the UK’s regulatory body for the DPA) is now using its powers and sanctions, and have already issued £310K in fines!

Our 1-day DPA Foundation course combines a mixture of theory and group workshop sessions to examine the legislation and requirements on organisations handling personal data and explores methods of complying with the DPA whilst supporting business objectives.
“I would like to thank the course tutor on behalf of the Troop for the in-house training that he delivered on Friday. Although I did not attend it myself, the guys got a lot out of the course and have now started firing questions at me (which means they were awake for the course!!!!!).
Please pass on my thanks to Ralph for a well structured and delivered course”
