Fundamentals of the Personal Data Protection Act

Organisations are required to appoint one or more Data Protection Officers (DPOs) to be responsible for ensuring the organisation’s compliance with the Personal Data Protection Act 2012 (PDPA).

A two-day course – “Fundamentals of the Personal Data Protection Act” – has been developed under the Business Management Workforce Skills Qualifications (BM WSQ) framework by PDPC to equip DPOs with basic knowledge and skills in complying with the PDPA.
