GDPR - has anyone done the training?

Free resources out there (I'm sure I've posted this before)

Blog post from Troy Hunt (IT security expert)

I've done the foundation course, it's generated more interest in my CV but no firm lead yet.

I did a day foundation course, since adding it to linkedin I've had a few approaches. There is demand as companies are trying to gear up for it, while it's true that the ICO may not know what it means in practice and until some of it starts getting tested in court then we won't either but companies still have to comply by May 2018 so they can't really wait and see.

There are an awful lot of charlatans around pretending to be experts but giving poor advice, just like every other aspect of IT security in my experience. Possibly could have left "security" off that statement.

Just read what's out there, that's what I did and now I'm in demand

In demand skill for what? Even the ICO doesn't have firm details of what the legislation means in practise.

Just wondering if anyone here has done a GDPR course? If so what are your thoughts? Seems to be an in demand skill at the moment.
