As DPO, you are expected to:
Inform and advise controllers/processors and employees
Monitor compliance with the data protection law and internal rules and regulations regarding data protection

How to ensure data protection by design and by default in a fast changing digital and legal environment
How to assess data protection compliance and how it is interlinked with IT security

Group and individual assignments;
Practical exercises on DPO roles and responsibilities;
Interactive approach: the module’s structure will give you the opportunity to ask questions and share and discuss experiences, knowledge, needs and challenges with the trainers and other participants;
