In-Company Training
Personal data in Singapore is protected under the Personal Data Protection Act 2012 (PDPA), the main data protection regulation came into force in 2014. The PDPA governs the collection, use, disclosure and care of personal data. With digitalisation and more cross-border transactions, Singapore companies should leverage the PDPA so that they can gain the confidence of their various stakeholders.
This is Level 1 of the Data Protection training programme. For companies to sustain their data protection programme, there are three levels of competencies that would strengthen their policies, processes, and people: Awareness, Implementation, and Management (AIM). Under Awareness, participants would understand potential areas of non-compliance to PDPA in their areas of responsibilities.
