Master class Privacy Assessment Framework

Is your educational institution in control of personal data protection and do you meet the standards? Discover in this master class how you can use the Privacy Assessment Framework to effectively organise, maintain and evaluate all matters concerning privacy. You will also learn how to measure where you stand on data protection every year.

The Privacy Assessment Framework helps institutions implement the right measures to adequately protect personal data. With this assessment framework, you get concrete insights, guidelines and follow-up steps to strengthen data protection. Institutions can purposefully evaluate and optimise their processes, activities and measures, leading to better data protection.

Reliable guide

The Assessment Framework is a reliable guide for institutions striving for a strong data protection culture and compliance with the AVG. By implementing and following the PDCA improvement cycle, you work consistently to identify risks, keep your processing register up to date, raise employee awareness and discover deficiencies that can be addressed. So you can use the framework for your Privacy Information Management System (PIMS).

The assessment framework is also used for the sector-wide privacy benchmark where you can compare as an institution (anonymously) where you stand compared to other institutions in the education sector.

For whom is this master class?

The Privacy Assessment Framework master class is aimed at privacy officers, coordinators, data protection officers, ISP advisers and (IT) auditors/controllers. This masterclass is also valuable for colleagues with information security/security tasks, because of the interfaces between information security and personal data protection.

Getting started with the Privacy Assessment Framework

Under the guidance of privacy consultant Erik van den Beld of Audittrail and Helma de Boer of SURF's Privacy Expertise Centre, you will work concretely with the assessment framework and the domains and statements that are part of it. This will allow you to quickly see how to use the framework in practice.

The participants are colleagues from the education sector. Using interactive working methods, you will have the opportunity to learn and become proficient in using and completing the Assessment Framework. We will also look at the maturity levels associated with it. There is ample opportunity for informal exchange/discussion, both during and after the master class.
