As the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) prepares to take effect in May 2018, organizations everywhere are clamoring for information on how they can become compliant. One of the most important steps toward GDPR compliance is providing employees with training on data privacy and security practices. But is there a way to find GDPR training free?
The short answer is yes. While some companies may use fee-based providers to train their staff members on GDPR best practices, there are also many online resources available that provide free guidance and instruction tailored to the new legislation. Organizations should start by visiting official EU sites such as GDPR-Info to read up on the latest news and legal documents related to the regulation. Companies can also check out the resources page at Cybersecurity Insiders, which provides links to practical guides, webinars, and white papers about GDPR implementation.
