Hi,

Can anyone recommend any GDPR in-house training for HR?

Thanks,

Tamara

I'm looking into commissioning a solicitor that I met to build a bespoke day course for me, incorporating an interactive session followed by a workshop designed to drive a GDPR collaboration...but Im based up North. Her initial presentation was great, best Id seen of the bunch.

Hi Tamara

It is very difficult as there are so many providers I would probably visit the ICO website to see if they have recommended anyone.

As an aside I was on an employment law briefing today and GDPR came up. The speaker recommended an ICO blog and GDPR mythbusters which I thought I would share as it seems very sensible!

Hi Tamara

We're seeing quite a of of free training sessions being advertised at the moment like this one in Leeds

https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/lets-talk-gdpr-leeds-tickets-3657811...

and this one in Preston

https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/general-data-protection-regulation-f...

As Jason says there is plenty of information out there but might be worth contacting any of these organisations to see if they would do in-house training
