About this course
Now that the UK's transition period (from leaving the EU) has ended, the EU GDPR has been brought into UK law and sits alongside other data protection laws and regulations.
Our GDPR Training provides employees with an understanding of their duties and responsibilities when it comes to processing personal data under the GDPR in the UK. This training course provides an in-depth look into the GDPR in the UK, building on the content of our GDPR EU Essentials course.
The General Data Protection Regulation has brought together years of different laws and regulations and combines them into a single technology-neutral piece of legislation which will form the foundation of data protection law for years to come.
Our GDPR training is aimed at staff who need to follow the rules and policies that are laid out by the GDPR. In this GDPR course, staff will learn about personal data, the principles of the GDPR, individual rights and will use some scenario-based learning.
Download our free GDPR white paper for more information about the regulations and how it affects certain industry sectors.

Easy to follow
I don't like learning online, I prefer a real human being. The Narrators, although I'm sure are nice people, are boring and monotoned. It is really easy to follow though.
Good overview of GDPR
Easy to understand the principles and how they apply to my role.
Good grounding
I was already aware of GDOR from previous role, but a refresher is always good
Excellent training
Very well presented & easy to understand.
brief but informative
Good insight into how I should be handling other companies and peoples data without being too long or complicated
Why is this training important?
Compliance
It's important that you comply with the law and know the ways in which it affects you and the way you work.
In May 2018, the EU GDPR came into effect. At the same time, the UK also introduced a new Data Protection Act. This sat alongside the GDPR and set out certain provisions which the GDPR allowed countries to decide for themselves.
On 31st January 2020, the UK enacted the Withdrawal Agreement which, among other things, signalled the UK's exit from the EU and entry into a transition period. During the transition period, all EU laws, including the GDPR, continued to apply. However, to avoid any problems at the end of the transition period, the Agreement also introduced the UK GDPR. This was a combination of the EU GDPR and the Data Protection Act which tweaked the European Regulation to make it relevant to the UK. During the transition period, both the EU and UK GDPR were in effect in the UK until the end of the transition when just the UK GDPR remained.
Today, both GDPRs are in effect in their own areas; the EU GDPR across the European Union and the wider European Economic Area and the UK GDPR in the UK.
