Demystifying Data Mapping

Schools and Trusts process a huge amount of data which is often part of complex data systems.

With personal data being stored in a number of formats (paper, electronic, audio, visual) and in a number of different locations (paper files, electronic records, CCTV),  keeping track of your processes, records, requests and data protection impact assessments (DPIAs) can feel daunting.

However, that’s where data mapping steps in to help you come to grips with your data flows and remain compliant with UK GDPR.

During the session we will be looking at:

• What is Data Mapping? 
• Data Mapping or RoPA?
• Updates on data mapping with DPD
• How to carry out a data map

Let us introduce you to this week's professional speaker
