GDPR

The introduction of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in May 2018 rocked the business world to its core. From this date, organisations spanning all sectors in the European Union were immediately required to make significant data protection improvements. The result of which was massive process and policy alterations for millions of businesses, which were suddenly required to entirely rethink their approach to data collection, storage and usage. It was subsequently impossible to aggressively collect and hold onto data long-term, with the intention of repeatedly reaching out to clients and customers. Nor could any business in the EU collect information from clients and customers without their express consent and understanding of what was being collected, and how it would be used. Almost every business based in the EU now handles its customers’ data in a completely different way. GDPR was implemented for the greater good, but has nonetheless proved challenging and problematic for many thousands of businesses across the EU.

GDPR

Build the skills, knowledge and confidence needed to oversee compliance in an organisational setting.

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.

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.
