Data Protection in the 21st C Foundations

data protection “POOR DATA PROTECTION PRACTICES RISK DAMAGING YOU MOST VALUABLE ASSET  – YOUR CORPORATE REPUTATION”

Thursday 12th February 2015, 10.00-13.00, Andalucia Lab, Marbella

Trainer – Data Protection Expert & Professional Trainer Peter Bosbury

Course Overview

If you and your personnel do not know or understand how to maintain confidentiality of information, or, how to secure it appropriately, not only do you risk having one of your most valuable business assets (information) mishandled, inappropriately used, or obtained by unauthorized persons, your organisation also risks being non-compliant when viewed against the requirements of the European and Spanish Data Protection legislation.

Protecting Data held by businesses is not only essential ethically, but also, demanded legislatively. The Foundations course acts both as an introduction to the topic of Data Protection and as an annual Continuous Professional Development (CPD) refresher course for all employees.

This 3 hour Data Protection Foundations course is geared to promote knowledge and understanding of individuals and companies, their roles and responsibilities when dealing with Data and, in particular, recognising the difficulties of Data Risk Management in the world of modern cross-border communications in the 21st Century. The course makes use of videos, interactive practical sessions and full presentation facilities to communicate the material. There are a number of hand-outs made available for delegates to take back into their work place for future reference.

Cost – 75€ per person

Festival Arte Sano 9 – Dec 6 & 7 – San Pedro Alcantara

Arte-Sano9-eTransformation is the theme of this edition of the popular healing arts festival that will be held in San Pedro on the weekend of December 6 and 7. The Arte Sano festivals have been running for 8 years now, offering a chance for people to experience different ways of living, and transforming their lives through healthier eating, holistic disciplines like Yoga, meditation and personal development. The Arte Sano festivals are weekend events that are packed with activities for people interested in trying something new – classes and workshops give people the chance to try practical activities, while talks and conferences can introduce new and innovative ideas. The eco-holistic market has all kinds of natural and organic products as well as original artisan gifts, ideal with Christmas just round the corner. “San Pedro’s municipal ‘Carpa’ provides an excellent venue for this event,” explains Monica Bereuther, co-organiser of the event. “It is very easy to find in the town’s feria ground and has enough space for the diverse market as well as all the activities. As a complement to our summer edition on the Paseo Maritimo, it serves to bring our message of natural living to a wider audience.”
