Heard about GDPR?

Want to know how it affects your business?

Worried about what you need to do and have in place?

This short course is for you. There is lots of information about GDPR available but very little step by step support. So I have devised this 12 step challenge which will focus on the key elements you need to put into place. You can work through each step, understanding how this relates to your business and taking action that suits your business. When you have questions, there is a Facebook group where you can pop in or if you are not on facebook, just use the question forum on the training page.  

Who am I? I am Lesley Cooley, a qualified data protection officer with 15 years experience supporting businesses to meet the legislative requirements around data protection. I am also a qualified risk manager, level 5 coach and mentor, part qualified accountant, qualified information security auditor, qualified change manager and a part qualified accountant. I'll be here to help you through the sticky questions and provide assurance along the way. 

You have access to the programme for a whole year, more than enough time to get the basics in place and you have support in the Q&A forums.
