Could your reputation suffer? With training, it shouldn’t !
Now there is increased regulatory activity and growing public awareness and concern, no organisation can afford to ignore data protection. Compliance, preferably best practice, avoids problems with the regulator, preserves reputation and develops client confidence. Would you know what to do with, and how to handle a Subject Access Request or a request under the Right to Object?
We have provided data protection consultancy to several law firms, supporting them with their compliance, including compliance audits, appropriate documentation, advising on processor contracts and advice on personal data breaches. We have also delivered training to a large number of solicitors, often through other organisations, such as the Law Society of Scotland.
In addition to our generic courses, which are suitable for legal professionals, we have developed four half day courses aimed at addressing the needs of the legal sector. These courses, focusing on significant data protection challenges, are particularly relevant for solicitors and others who have a specific responsibility for the handling of personal data, but will also be of value and interest(!) to many others.
These half day courses will be available in August and September through the Law Society of Scotland. In the meantime, if you would like us to deliver any of them in-house please contact us. Alternatively, if you would like to attend a public course please get in touch and we will try to build a critical mass..

Training hours can be accredited as CPD for professional bodies whose members are required to accrue a stipulated number during the year. This course will satisfy the requirements of most professional bodies for six hours of verifiable CPD. Attendance certificates will be available on request. All courses have clear learning outcomes. Some have been endorsed by Training Qualifications UK and certificates are awarded subject to passing an examination. Other courses have certificates of attendance issued that can be used to demonstrate elements of accountability.
