PRIVACY AND DATA PROTECTION
BY DESIGN TRAINING
This newly updated course (~18 min) teaches the basics of privacy and data protection by design training to engineers, designers, and other workforce members. To effectively design for privacy and data protection, one must identify and assess the various issues that might arise. Doing so can be challenging because privacy is a broad and complex concept. This training course aims to provide clear and concrete guidance about how to design for privacy and data protection. Professor Daniel Solove uses his well-known and widely-used taxonomy of privacy to explain how to identify the various privacy issues that might arise with new products or services.
The term “Privacy by Design” was coined by Ann Cavoukian, the former Information and Privacy Commissioner of Ontario, Canada and now Executive Director of the Privacy and Big Data Institute at Ryerson University. According to Cavoukian, “Privacy by Design refers to the philosophy and approach of embedding privacy into the design, operation and management of information technologies and systems, across the entire information life cycle.”
Many privacy laws require privacy and data protection by design. For example, Article 25 of the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) requires data protection by design and default. The U.S. Federal Trade Commission has advised companies to “implement privacy by design more systematically.”
Professor Solove has designed a short training module to provide clear and concrete guidance about how to design for privacy. Professor Solove uses his well-known and widely-used taxonomy of privacy to explain how to identify the various privacy issues that might arise with new products or services. This privacy awareness training course will be helpful to engineers and designers of programs, software, websites, and other products or services that could implicate privacy. The course is also useful for the entire privacy compliance team, as it provides a roadmap and framework to help people spot privacy issues and understand their implications.

About TeachPrivacy and Our Training Philosophy
TeachPrivacy was founded by Professor Daniel J. Solove, the leading expert on privacy and data security law. He is deeply involved in the creation of all training programs because he believes that training works best when made by subject-matter experts and by people with extensive teaching experience.
According to Professor Solove: “Great training isn’t about slickness or tricks. It is about teaching. The goal is to make people understand, care, and remember. Great training is made with genuine passion – to make people love training, it must be made with love. Excellent substance is essential. The material must be explained clearly, understandably, and concretely. The content must be short and to the point – and it must be engaging. Slickness and gimmicks can’t compensate for lackluster substance.”
TeachPrivacy provides privacy awareness training, information security awareness training, phishing training, HIPAA training, FERPA training, PCI training, as well as training on many other privacy and security topics.
