Overview

Combined GDPR Certificate Course

As the Internet continues to dominate every aspect of our lives, data protection and confidentiality have become crucial issues. There have been several changes in the way companies and organisations store and maintain records. Although the UK has left the EU, the GDPR, or General Data Protection Regulations, remain the same, except for a few minor changes.

The GDPR laws and rules govern privacy, consent and data protection. However, despite the stipulations provided in the GDPR, the protection and safety of data are still inadequate as many consumers are unaware of the specific rules that apply to the storage and sharing of data. Our online course on GDPR sensitises people to the implications of data breaches and explains data protection, consent and privacy in detail.

Study method describes the format in which the course will be delivered. At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

CPD stands for Continuing Professional Development. If you work in certain professions or for certain companies, your employer may require you to complete a number of CPD hours or points, per year. You can find a range of CPD courses on Reed Courses, many of which can be completed online.

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.
