Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA) Training

Data Protection Impact Assessments have been required for many years for public sector organisations in line with the Information Commissioner’s Office Best Practice Guidance and the Data Security and Protection Toolkit requirements.

Data Protection Impact Assessments are now a legal requirement under GDPR(UK) legislation for both private and public sector organisations. A DPIA should be considered for all new projects or changes to existing processes where personal information is processed, and completed where special category (sensitive personal) information is to be processed.

Completion of the DPIA identifies what other documentation and actions need to be completed to ensure compliance with data protection legislation from the beginning of the project. Early identification of these requirements makes it much easier for them to be put in place.
