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
Will these programmes prepare our team for supervisory review?
That is what they are built for. Casework is structured around the evidence supervisors request — risk-appetite articulation, documentation, attestation — and participants leave able to assemble the evidence trail before it is asked for and defend the framework in examination. Faculty include practitioners who have sat on the supervisor’s side of the table.
Which risk frameworks does the curriculum cover?
The risk and compliance curriculum spans enterprise risk management on the COSO framework, credit, market, liquidity and operational risk, IFRS 9 provisioning, stress testing, and financial-crime disciplines including fraud detection and AML/CFT. Each programme page states the frames it works in and what participants will build with them.
Can we attend in French?
Yes. BIZENIUS delivers in English and French, in classroom, live virtual and hybrid formats. French-language cohorts serve institutions across BCEAO jurisdictions and other francophone markets.
What happens after we enquire about a programme?
A senior practitioner replies within one business day with the brochure attached. The conversation then covers dates, format, any tailoring your institution needs, and the fee — BIZENIUS shares fees in that proposal, not on a public price list.
