Overview

GDPR in the Workplace Course

The GDPR still applies to the UK despite having now left the EU. The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has been retained in UK law with only some small changes.

The key principles, rights and obligations remain the same. It is now known as the UK GDPR.

In this course, 'GDPR' refers to both the EU and UK GDPR. Where the information relates specifically to the UK or EU GDPR, this will be referred to as UK GDPR or EU GDPR. The GDPR, or General Data Protection Regulation, is an important part of EU/UK and international law.

This regulation protects the personal data of citizens, outlining the ways that businesses are responsible to store, protect and process it.

The goal of this course is to give you a deep understanding of the legislation itself, as well as how it may apply to any business that you work in.

Although the GDPR is implemented officially in the EU & the UK, it is actually a respected regulation all over the world. Not to mention, any international business that deals with the data of EU/UK citizens is still expected to adhere to these regulations.

In this course, you will learn about all the necessary definitions within the GDPR as well as how to properly comply with it.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
