- those with Data Protection responsibilities, both DPOs or non-DPO who are interested in understanding how an IAO programme can support and enable ongoing compliance with. the DPA2018.
This is not an IT course; however, IT practitioners may find it beneficial to understand how a greater understanding of Information Assets, and the implementation of an
IAO programme will benefit the development of a more business-centric and business-supportive ICT strategy going forward, facilitate better and more intuitive access control, and develop information-sharing protocols that enable rather than inhibit partnership working.
