  • Legal professionals advising on GDPR, AI, and regulatory risk
  • Compliance & risk professionals

This CPD event is built from real Data Protection Officer advisory work and regulatory response experience, ensuring that the content reflects practical, real-world challenges rather than academic theory.

Go one level deeper: Deep Dive A

The seven-hour CPD day gives the core programme. The Deep Dive hours are there for organisations that want more practical depth.

GDPR, Vulnerability and Data Protection Practice

The core Event A programme remains the seven-hour CPD day. Alongside it, Deep Dive A gives a few extra hours for learners and organisations that want to go one level deeper into GDPR, vulnerability and data protection practice.

It uses practical exercises and real-world scenarios to test how vulnerability can arise in ordinary services, how support needs affect privacy judgement, and how teams can evidence fair, proportionate decisions in areas such as digital journeys, payments, safeguards and ethical DPIAs.

Use it where the team wants more applied discussion after the main CPD material, or where the organisation needs a stronger shared view of what good practice looks like in services affecting people in vulnerable circumstances.
