I particularly liked the course structure, the clarity and engagement of the trainer.
We were kept on our toes with questions to encourage engagement. Taking frequent breaks was an added bonus because it helped to prevent the overloading of information. Overall, it was a fantastic course, and one I would highly recommend.
I was particularly interested in the role of the CG and how it relates to other roles responsible for the safeguarding of data. There were opportunities to share experience between participants and this enhanced the experience.
If anyone got a question wrong when we were doing the quiz, no-one was made to feel silly, we just talked through the answer. This meant we all felt comfortable asking and answering questions.
- The trainer was really engaging, to deliver the 4 days on their own and keep the audience engaged is difficult but it was good. Really enjoyed the content and the interaction throughout. The mock questions were good and helped test knowledge throughout.
The trainer was knowledgeable, confident and clear in the delivery of the course, it was clear she knows the subject matter and it felt very authentic. This is the first virtual training I have attended and I was unsure how I would find it, but it worked very well, the group size was very good and I was able to stay engaged.
The information was concise and easy to digest whilst being relevant to all parties attending the course.
Was interactive & knew the topic inside out, whilst ensuring it was relevant to the various companies on the course.
Not having been involved with DP at all professionally I found it very interesting, enlightening and Educational.
Their speed was great, tests and examples throughout the course were perfect and timely.
