Who

We’ve written this course with three types of personas in mind. If you fit within one of the following categories, the course is for you.

• High-level executives and managers who need a helicopter view

• IT Professionals who need direction to deliver projects

• Ninjas, the techies and specialists who need to be more granular

Why Talking About These Topics is so Hard?

You have probably found some resistance if you have ever tried to talk about GDPR. Typically people are not interested, and the topic is boring. They say the issues raised get in the way of doing “real” business. On the other hand, artificial intelligence is a more sexy subject. So why aren’t we “doing” more AI? We’ve found people run away from privacy and protection with ill-thought-through excuses or misunderstandings presented as reasons for why we should be doing something else.

A cursory look through business journals or the IT press should reveal we are heading towards a road crash. Take a look at the GDPR fines handed out to Google, Facebook and many other blue-chip companies. If you then factor in class action consequences that could reach, in one example, $1Billion, then you see the extent of the problem. Oversights and data breaches hand lawyers reasons to extract huge sums from corporates.

How can this course help you?

Cybercrime is on the rise, and in our businesses, we prefer to focus on getting to the AI promised land faster. What if we could have it all? What if we could reduce our risks to hackers and derive real value from our data? We will not promise you the earth but suggest that a detour to take in the Data Protection and Privacy landscape will provide you with a new global view for improved innovation to help you and your organisation drive forward.
