Background

The SURFaudit Privacy Assessment Framework provides a solid basis and reference point for measuring the extent to which the protection of personal data within different education sectors (PO/VO, MBO, HBO and WO) meets the sector standard. It provides institutions with valuable insights, guidelines and follow-up actions to improve data protection maturity. With this assessment framework, they can effectively evaluate and optimise their processes, activities and measures for better data protection. It contributes to awareness, identification of potential deficiencies, risks and implementation of appropriate measures, ensuring secure processing of personal data. The SURFaudit Assessment Framework acts as a reliable guide for institutions striving for a strong data protection culture and compliance with the AVG. In addition, the Assessment Framework is used for the national privacy benchmark within education.

Who is this masterclass for?

The SURFaudit Masterclass Privacy Assessment Framework is aimed at privacy officers, data protection officers, IBP advisors and (IT) auditors/controllers. Given the interfaces between information security and the protection of personal data, this master class is also valuable for colleagues working in the field of information security/security in the education sector.

Getting started with the Privacy Assessment Framework

Under the guidance of privacy consultant Erik van den Beld, you will work concretely with the Assessment Framework and the domains and statements that are part of it. This will help you on your way to using the Assessment Framework.

The participants are colleagues from different education sectors. Using interactive working methods, you will have the opportunity to learn and become proficient in using and completing the Assessment Framework. The corresponding maturity levels will also be examined. There is plenty of opportunity for informal exchange/discussion, both during and after the master class.
