Hi David,

excerpt from the project’s abstract:

In particular, STAR will:

1) formulate the training topics in close cooperation with stakeholders,

2) author the actual training materials,

3) validate and test them in pilot trainings.

This somewhat binds us already, especially the reasoning: Each DPA developing such materials in isolation increases the overall cost, risks undermining the harmonising effect of the GDPR and puts greater pressure on its consistency mechanisms. STAR will thus provide them with necessary and efficient training materials and resources.

but don’t get me wrong, I fully support your idea. Part I of the book could answer the “how to” with your suggestion (challenges, approaches, hints) and part II the “what” with the actual training scenarios, examples and everything else we discussed last time.

Subject: [star] quick response please - D2.4 choice
Importance: High

Hi all,

We have an option with D4.2, and I would like your perspective before I commit us to anything -

One of the materials we said we might deliver was a "training handbook"

I had assumed this would be a short GDPR handbook/quick reference for use in the training, that trainees could take away with them.

It occurs to us that instead, we could produce a "training handbook" for trainers - in which we would put

guidance on delivering GDPR training
common challenges
approaches
ways to best use the STAR materials

We could also update this with our observations from the pilot exercises and other experience gained in the project - this way we can make that knowledge useful to practitioners.

What do you think?

If you can tell me "Yes, lets do that" or "no, stick with the intro handbook" in the next couple of hours, I'll add it into D4.2 and we can then circulate that for review today.

Best wishes,

DBW
