Personal Data Protection Act (“PDPA”) is an Act that was enforced in 2013. It regulates the processing of personal data in regards to commercial transaction. PDPA governs any business entities that collect, store, process or transmit personal data internally and externally. This means that almost every business entity will be affected by this Act.

This PDPA training course is designed to give the organization the awareness on how to assess their implementation of PDPA in their organization based on General Acceptance Privacy Principles (GAPP) from AICPA and other related standards. This is a systems and technical assessment, not a legal assessment. Included in the topics would be the specification for a personal information management system under the BS10012 standard and the effort of implementation. The participants will leave with an understanding on not just the seven main principles of PDPA, but also on how to assess the maturity of their organization towards the PDPA.
