Overview
Do you want to know more about the data protection risks associated with Artificial Intelligence deployment in the business setting, and how this affects your responsibilities? If so, then take this one-day course.
This course provides a comprehensive understanding of the intersection between Profiling, Big Data, Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), and the relevant Data Protection Laws in the UK. Participants will delve into the ethical, legal, and technical considerations of utilising these technologies while safeguarding individual privacy rights. Delegates will acquire the tools and knowledge necessary to make informed decisions, mitigate risks, and harness the power of data for positive outcomes.
The course is interactive, so you will be encouraged to ask questions throughout, and can share your real-world experiences with other attendees, discussing issues and ideas to help them within their role. You’ll also talk through real-life practice scenarios to aid with your learning, giving you a proper hands-on learning experience.

We’ll provide you with one of our highly skilled live trainers for the duration of the course. These experts currently work as DPOs or consultants, so can train you using real examples from their experience in the industry, ensuring the course is practical and reliable.
Though our courses are virtual, you’ll still be fully involved by participating in breakout sessions, asking questions, and sharing your experiences. You can receive valuable advice from peers in the industry, network with other delegates, and make worthwhile connections.
Our trainers are here to help you. We will provide you with mentor support for one month after the course, to assist with any queries or issues you may have.
We don’t just deliver courses, and leave you to it. We provide you access to our online portal – which contains dozens of useful tools, templates, audits, policies, and more – all available for you to use within your organisation.
