Jersey Data Protection Authority (JOIC) Board Support Squad – training for you and your board.
28/07/2025
The Jersey Office of the Information Commissioner (JOIC) is offering a limited number of boardroom support sessions to help boards and NEDs navigate the data protection landscape, helping you to understand both board and manager data protection risks and responsibilities.
This is an opportunity to work with subject matter experts in a safe space to stress-test your organisation's data protection practices and identify risks before they are realised.
The JOIC board support squad meeting is your opportunity to explore practical tips and understand the answers you can expect from your team.
Get answers to questions such as:
- How do you hold the executive to account when it comes to Data Protection?
- How do JOIC stress test the effectiveness of the data protection policies and procedures embedded in the organisation?
- What is JOIC's risk appetite, bearing in mind the impact that any regulatory action could have on the organisation, including the impact of any fines?
JOIC says:
- Please note these sessions can be hosted for one organisation, or,
- If preferred, a group of professionals who may be from various organisations and are open to collaborating.
Please see the details below for instructions on arranging your meeting.
