Training & Education of DPO & Privacy Officers dealing with Health Data.

Chair: Marie Penot

Abstract

This panel discussion will discuss the need for specific training and education for DPO and Privacy Officers working in healthcare and biomedical research:

  • What kind of education is needed for DPO and Privacy Officers involved in the processing of personal health data?
  • Should health data specific certification frameworks be developed?
  • How could an European training program for Health Data Protection look like?

Data Protection Officers (DPOs) working in the health data field face an heavily regulated and very heterogenous landscape. This situation results in a huge challenge: how to provide adequate training to privacy professionals working in this complex environment.
