GDPR reaches further than most organisations planned for: it binds data controllers and processors based in the EU, and organisations anywhere in the world that collect or process the personal data of EU residents. Superseding all earlier legislation, it has reshaped how organisations with EU clientele approach data privacy. This masterclass enables participants to set a standard of data protection tailored to their organisation and aligned with industry practice — and to build the concepts and approaches needed for effective GDPR alignment whether the organisation sits inside the EU or outside it. The cohort works through the DPO role, privacy by design, breach response and enforcement.

Frequently asked
Is the masterclass relevant for organisations based outside the EU?
Yes. The programme is designed for effective GDPR alignment whether the organisation sits inside the EU or outside it, and examines how the regulation reaches data controllers and processors with EU clientele wherever they are based. It helps participants set a standard of data protection tailored to their organisation and aligned with industry practice.
What topics does the GDPR masterclass cover?
The curriculum covers the Data Protection Officer role and its obligations, privacy impact assessments, privacy by design and by default, the rights of data subjects and consent, data in the cloud and third parties, breach response from regulatory and commercial perspectives, and building an organisation-wide privacy programme backed by policy frameworks, e-discovery and data auditing.
Does attending the masterclass amount to legal advice on our GDPR position?
No — it is a training programme, not legal counsel. It builds the concepts and approaches teams need for GDPR alignment work, with enforcement aspects modelled against your organisation as a learning exercise. Delivery is in English and French, dates on a rolling calendar on request, fees and quotations on enquiry, and an in-house edition tailored to your organisation is available.
