Matt was a brilliant trainer and really engaging. The course itself was thorough and very interesting. It was structured very well and I left with not only a certificate but a vast amount of things to take back to my workplace to implement.

Highly recommend doing this course after the foundation. It goes over the whole GDPR in more depth. Matt made the topic exciting and engaging and gave every day examples so you could relate a remember them. Lots of time to ask questions to a highly knowledgeable trainer.

Attended this course online and received excellent coaching and direction from the trainer Matt Potter. This course is ideal for those who want to gain certification and a better understanding of the requirements of being a DPO or if you are looking for a refresher to catch up on the latests requirments then I recommend this course. It is not easy but anything worth having is never easy. Be prepared for some hard work.

Had the pleasure of being taught again by Andrew Snow - a true expert and certainly someone that commands a great deal of respect for the depth of his knowledge - he is someone whom I aspire to in the long-term to develop a similar level of competence and expertise. He put everybody at ease and guided us through an intense course. Very highly recommended
