Stay Tuned as a DPO or as a privacy professional. This formula* offers the ideal opportunity to keep yourself up to date in the world of the GDPR. Every quarter we organize a whole day full of interesting topics at different locations. With this subscription formula you get 4 training days in one year. Each training day is taught by 2 speakers who each look at the recent GDPR decisions from their perspective. Each speaker is a top expert in his or her field.
During this training day, we take a legal perspective on the key GDPR developments of the past three months and explore several newly evolving legal aspects of the legislation. We also review recent technological developments, practical guidance issued by supervisory authorities, and upcoming initiatives and priorities of the European Data Protection Board (EDPB) relevant to DPOs.
In this way you get a unique opportunity to keep your technical, organizational and legal knowledge up to date. In addition to the theoretical aspect, attention is also always paid to the practical part.
