“Matt's delivery was brilliant. The course went through at the right pace for all participants with Matt happy to take a break and answer individual questions. Although there is a lot to cover the structure was perfect and in such a fashion that you may not actually appreciate just how much you are taking in. As he has personal experience with the subject he is able to use real world examples that aid learning and understanding. Would recommend this course and Matt to any individual involved in data protection as an absolute necessity.”
- Matthew Lindsay, Information Governance Officer
“Andrew Snow was an excellent trainer who has a vast knowledge in GDPR and is able to share this easily with his audience in a way that is understandable. He was happy to repeat any content, he sought confirmation of our understanding at various stages of the course to ensure we all understood the content and provided lots of recaps. I would thoroughly recommend this course as it is extremely relevant to my role.”
