For the first time in data protection law, the GDPR introduces “accountability” as a compulsory legal requirement.

Demonstrating compliance consists of several elements, including preparing policies, monitoring compliance with internal policies and procedures, amending job roles and updating customer facing documentation such as websites and offline forms.

This practical sessions looks at the detail of what accountability requires, and provides delegates with the knowledge to achieve compliance in their organisations, including:

• an introduction into Accountability, its obligations and why it is crucial under the GDPR
• how to create a culture of Accountability so that data protection is a key commitment throughout the organisation
• how existing data protection statements and privacy notices need to be altered and extended
• what needs to be specified about the organisation’s security measures, and how the organisation should respond to data breaches
• the new role of the Data Protection Officer and/or those responsible for data protection compliance within organisations

It is recommended that delegates attending this session have a basic knowledge of current data protection legal requirements. Delegates with no existing knowledge may find it helpful to attend Data Protection Essential Knowledge Level 1 before attending this training course.
