GDPR in Higher Education: A multi-stakeholder perspective
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) took effect in May 2018 after years of development, triggering a lot of discussion and action across various industries, including the higher education sector. U.S. higher education institutions hold vast amounts of private information, some of which could be subject to the European Union’s GDPR and other emerging privacy-rights regulations.
This webinar, sponsored by Canon and delivered by John R. Brandt, the CEO of the MPI Group, provided an overview of the regulation through the lens of Higher Education and its major stakeholders, with particular focus on Technology and Procurement roles.
The webinar covered the following learning objectives:
- The overview, relevance, and applicability of GDPR to Higher Education institutions in the US.
- GDPR compliance challenges from the viewpoint of different Higher Education stakeholders.
- GDPR resources and steps towards compliance
