Legal basis & training obligation

What's the legal basis for this course?

GDPR training is mandatory for all companies that process personal data in the EU. This requirement is based on several interrelated provisions of the General Data Protection Regulation. Article 5(2) of the GDPR establishes the accountability requirement: You must be able to demonstrate that your company complies with the principles of data processing. Documented training for your employees is one of the measures you can use to provide this evidence. Article 32 of the GDPR additionally requires technical and organizational measures to ensure the security of processing. This includes ensuring that individuals who have access to personal data are trained in its proper handling. Documented GDPR training helps you fulfill these obligations in a transparent manner while simultaneously strengthening data protection awareness within your teams.

Who must be trained?

All employees who process or have access to personal data.

When is training required?
