// why teams choose us
Why data protection training is mandatory — not optional
The UK GDPR (incorporating the EU GDPR into UK law via the Data Protection Act 2018) and the EU GDPR both make data protection accountability a controller obligation. The ICO's Accountability Framework explicitly lists 'adequate, regular and refreshed' staff training as a documented control. ICO investigations and EU supervisory authority decisions consistently cite inadequate training as an aggravating factor. Customer audits, ISO 27001 certifications, SOC 2 reviews, and procurement due-diligence reviews all require evidence of staff training.
02
UK GDPR / DPA 2018 — controllers must demonstrate compliance under Article 5(2) accountability
03
EU GDPR Article 39(1)(b) — DPO is responsible for staff training; supervisors expect documented evidence
04
Customer audits, ISO 27001 (A.6.3), and SOC 2 reviews routinely require training evidence
