Global Privacy Officer Certification (ECPC-G)
Maastricht University
Nowadays, companies and organizations are increasingly operating in a global economy, in multiple jurisdictions. If your organization deals with customers, suppliers or people from other countries, only compliance with the GDPR will be not enough to ensure an effective worldwide Privacy and Data compliance strategy. The GDPR is considered being the Gold-Standard in Data Protection laws in the world, but one should keep in mind that countries around the world (may) have other - sometimes very strict - privacy and data protection laws. Therefore, international privacy compliance is incredibly hard and if you only focus on one region - then you're not compliant.
What you will learn
This is a specialized eight-weeks, online, hands-on training focused on privacy risk management enabling participants to acquire the “must know knowledge”, the “do’s and don’ts” and most effective methodology to act as Global Data Protection Officer.
The training provides you:
- an insight and sound understanding of the global privacy and data protection laws’ key concepts, principles and compliance requirements, highlighting how compliance obligations, within the privacy spectrum or overlapping with other obligations, potentially conflict or align;
- a step-by-step plan and checklist to put in place the necessary privacy compliant data protection and data security and as well as data policies in your organisation;
- guidance in the most cost-effective and efficient ways to comply with those rules, both from a short as longer term risk perspective.
This course is complemented with best-practice examples combined with a high degree of interactivity and a large range of other materials to provide participants the perfect expert practical knowledge, practical solutions and guidelines that can help in tackling the global data protection compliance issues they face in their everyday work.

Weekly programme of 8 consecutive weeks.
Two weekly live sessions and a pre-recorded lecture, adding up to appr. 8-10 hrs online teaching
