It’s no secret that the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation is a complicated piece of legislation. With 11 chapters composed of 99 articles, all of which intersect with other Data Privacy legislation, it’s easy to miss some important details.

But when you’re studying for an accreditation like the Certified Information Privacy Professional/Europe (CIPP/E) exam, missing details could cost you.

Introducing visual aids (such as mind maps, checklists, and other documents that incorporate visual elements) into your studying process can stimulate your brain in a way that reading regular text does not. Visuals help you to notice nuances, identify novel patterns, and commit what you’re learning to memory.

The CIPP/E exam and the field of Data Privacy and Protection more broadly are quite challenging, so you need every wayfinding advantage at your disposal.

At Data Strategy Professionals, we have partnered with Data Privacy and Cybersecurity expert Andrey Prozorov bring you a series of 23 mind maps and checklists to enhance your understanding of GDPR.
