Data & Privacy Training

Training is an important part of how organisations comply with their data & privacy obligations. It helps individuals understand their responsibilities when working for an organisation and handling personal data.

Effective training should help to prevent data security breaches or misuse of personal data as well as to demonstrate an organisation's commitment to accountability – a key requirement under UK and EU data protection law.

Our team has considerable experience of developing and delivering effective and engaging training. Our workshops are practical. We work through real-life scenarios to help your institution deal effectively with data protection challenges. We will give your staff the experience and confidence to deal efficiently with the issues that arise.

How we help

The Data Privacy Team at Bates Wells can provide training for you and your organisation. We regularly provide training on all aspects of the GDPR and e-privacy rules. This can be training in person to small or large groups or remotely (where technology permits).

One of the central objectives behind the GDPR is to encourage a privacy focused culture. Cultures don’t typically change overnight – education and training are critical components to help individuals understand and implement change within their organisations. The GDPR requires controllers to implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to demonstrate that their data processing meets the requirements of the GDPR. Training is a crucial way of implementing these measures and demonstrating that they are in place.
