Join this unparalleled opportunity to streamline your journey toward Data Privacy Act (DPA) of 2012 compliance. Over the past six years, our dedicated team has refined a methodology that stands as the most efficient path to DPA compliance—significantly reducing complexity and expediting the process.

Take advantage of this advanced version of our Full-Build model, a re-engineered approach designed to fast-track your assessment and compliance journey. With this enhanced strategy, we can reduce the typical compliance timeline from five weeks to a mere two weeks, provided your team is primed and prepared for an active, hands-on workshop experience.

This is not just a learning session; it's a transformative workshop where your data privacy officers will engage, apply, and emerge with actionable strategies to ensure your organization's compliance. We recommend nominating your top two data privacy officers to participate in this masterclass. If your organization boasts a trio of privacy specialists, we warmly welcome all three to benefit from this intensive, transformative workshop.
