Upcoming webinar: What will Brexit mean for UK data protection law?

Is GDPR over? What Brexit means for UK data protection law

Tuesday 28 January, 12:00pm

On 31 January 2020, the UK will leave the European Union, and GDPR as we know it will come to an end.

From exit day, the GDPR we have become familiar with will disappear from the statute book and the Data Protection, Privacy and Electronic Communications (Amendments etc) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 will come into effect. This will result in hundreds of changes to both the GDPR text in UK law and the Data Protection Act 2018.

In this webinar, our Director of Best Practice Gary Yantin will be joined by Director of Course Development Nick Henderson and DPO Ruth Cohen to help organisations understand what data protection looks like in a post-Brexit world.

The webinar will cover:

• How Brexit will impact on UK data protection law
• What changes organisations, DPOs and compliance officers need to make to their policies and procedures
• The most recent GDPR cases from across the UK and Europe
• The latest in compliance advice and inside tips
• Answering all your GDPR and Brexit questions

VinciWorks has hosted several webinars on topics such as GDPR, health and safety, whistleblowing and more. You can view all of our webinars on-demand and sign-up for upcoming webinars here.

VinciWorks' GDPR training suite

GDPR: Privacy at Work begins with a “course builder” to deliver the course most relevant to their role

GDPR training is one of the key measures a company can take to ensure that staff comply with the regulations.

Best practice for GDPR compliance training is to enrol staff in a new GDPR course around once a year. To help organisations with continued compliance, we have continued to expand our GDPR training suite by adding modules to our comprehensive course, releasing refresher training and building several five minute knowledge checks specific to difference departments.
