What Our Clients Say About Us
“I have learnt so much from the two-day training course, whilst I had a knowledge of DPA 2018 and Data Protection in all, Mike and Michelle were able to delve in a little deeper and use examples of the legislation in practice, which in turn helped me to think of scenarios that this would be used within my organisation.”
Oxfordshire County Council, Public Sector Advanced Data Protection Training for Non DPOs
“Excellent blend of doctrine, theory and practicality with a refreshing level of pragmatism towards service enablement to frontline and communities.”
Gloucestershire Police, Police SIRO Training
“Really good course, focussing on risk and not just DPA compliance. Very good training for SIROs and would thoroughly recommend to colleagues.”
Public Health Wales, Public Sector SIRO Training
I have a much better understanding of the roles of the IAO and IAM and a broader appreciation of what is covered by the term data protection.
