Every organisation must comply with Privacy and Data Protection regulations. Organisations need to strive more for enforcing compliance to safeguard Personally Identifiable Information (PII) as the penalties for data loss are becoming more and more severe.

Obtaining the SECO-Insitute's Privacy & Data Protection Foundation certificate demonstrates your extensive overview of the rights and obligations of your organisation as well as the rights and obligations of your data subjects in according to the GDPR. The course equips you with the necessary knowledge and skills to make well-considered decisions on how to deal with PII, and other data.

In addition, the Privacy & Data Protection Foundation certificate exhibits your ability to cut through the legal jargon and focus on the core principles of privacy and data protection/ GDPR, and understand the impact these might have on your organisation. All in all, you will acquire a complete overview of your data protection responsibilities.
