This course serves critical roles including Chief Privacy Officer, Data Governance Director, and Senior Compliance Manager, equipping them with strategic frameworks to oversee enterprise-wide data protection.

The hands-on lab component, delivered through Koenig’s Flexi learning environment, enables students to configure a register of processing activities, design privacy policies, and simulate breach response protocols. A key project involves building a comprehensive data protection management system (DPMS) for a multinational organization, incorporating real-world scenarios like cross-border data transfers, vendor risk assessments, and regulatory audit readiness. These practical exercises ensure senior managers gain applied experience in implementing privacy-by-design principles and aligning executive decision-making with legal and technical compliance requirements.
