"I am thrilled to pass the GDPR Conversion Programme, having previously passed the Practitioner exam in 2015. The course material was clear and concise, building on previous data protection knowledge,  very easy to access online and study at your own pace. I would recommend anyone who previously obtained certified data protection practitioner status to take the conversion course to ensure their expertise is up-to-date."

"I’m delighted to have passed the Conversion Programme and achieve an updated qualification which reflects GDPR. The course materials were well designed and easy to work through, and it was great to be able to take the online exam when I felt ready to."

"I’m delighted to have passed the GDPR Conversion Programme Examination. The Programme was both enjoyable and challenging, providing an in depth look at the changes GDPR brings and how to apply these in practice.  I am now confident that my knowledge of Data Protection Law remains up to date and comfortable that I can apply the new regulations in practice in my day to day role."

"Having gained the previous practitioner qualification at the start of 2017, I was keen to follow through with the GDPR upgrade path, as formal recognition of the GDPR preparation work I have carried out over the last year. PDP qualifications in Data Protection give reassurance that the practitioner has been properly trained and assessed in this increasingly complicated area."

"As always PDP provided me with excellent, detailed lecture notes that helped guide me through the changes in the law.  I would recommend reading Peter Carey’s data protection guide, it is highly informative and useful.  As a Data Protection Officer it is a constant by my side in any meeting"

“I am thrilled to have passed my GDPR Conversion Programme. The course was challenging but being able to study each module in my own time and select the time of my choosing to take the exam really helped me to pass the exam. My studying with PDP enabled me to gain firstly my Data Protection Practitioners Certificate and then to update it to GDPR, I would recommend the course to anyone. I had no prior data protection experience before embarking on either course. I have gone from a novice to our “go to” data protection/GDPR expert.”

“As the Data Protection Officer for my firm, the PDP qualification (GDPR) helps reinforce my credibility, both internally and externally, as a data protection professional who whose advice and guidance can be relied upon. I would have no hesitation in recommending the qualification to anyone involved in providing data protection support within their organisation.”

“As a PDP ‘regular’ I found the conversion course was up to the usual high standard. The exam was also suitably testing.”

Paul Woods
Government Legal Department

“I obtained the Practitioner Certificate in Data Protection (PC.dp.) in December 2017 and having gone through an excellent training programme with PDP, I was inclined to follow this up by upgrading it to GDPR. The conversion programme is well designed as I could read through the material at my own pace, and take an online exam at my convenience. The training material, information and guidance provided by PDP was excellent.”
