In an increasingly data-driven world, cybersecurity is no longer just a concern for experts. Our proposed project is establishing a solid regional partnership in Greece, Cyprus and Germany, responding to the challenges of the new European data protection regime that is being shaped by the adoption on 27 April 2016, of a General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) 2016/679. Since there is no common European framework on skills and competences needed in data protection Sector, business Sector is facing a rising skills mismatch between data protection employees across European countries with a different occupational profile on skills and competencies and most importantly, different level of legislation/integration on data protection.
DataPro aims to incorporate the new digital mentality that is being shaped to companies, employees and young learners while responding to the fragmented certification system in the field.
