Highly recommended - completed this course after we received training from Andrew Snow on Part 3 DPA 2018 - A much broader overview of the GDPR - whilst new to the subject, although the course contained a lot of information, this was straightforward an learnt a great deal - Andy is a great trainer

Straightforward, easy to understand and delivered very well by Andrew Snow. A lot of material to cover in a single day and course materials of a good quality - recommended

105. Sharon on 24/02/2022, said:

Very easy booking process. Course materials were sent in advance and were easy to understand, it’s an intense course so recommend delegates do look through the pre-course material. Course itself was well presented by Matt Potter who had good examples and a fun way of presenting a dry subject. I’m new to the subject so learnt a lot and Matt answered all my questions which really helped.
