Live online training

The DPDP Act, taught live by someone who actually does this.

A live online course over Google Meet or Zoom, run by a practising DPO. Bring the problem you are stuck on and get it answered in the session — the one thing a recorded course can never do.

Live, not recorded

Sessions run over Google Meet or Zoom with a real instructor. Ask about the situation you are actually stuck on and get it answered while you are there - the one thing a pre-recorded course cannot do at any price.

Taught by a practising DPO

Someone doing this work day to day, not reading the Act aloud. You get the judgement calls and the grey areas, not just the sections.

Priced to actually attend

Comparable live DPDP training in India runs upward of ₹20,000. We kept this reachable for students and individual professionals paying out of their own pocket.

What it covers

The Act, and then the part nobody writes down

Sessions follow these areas. The exact running order flexes with the batch — if a group needs longer on breach notification or DPIAs, we spend longer there.

The Act, precisely

  • Scope, applicability and the key definitions people get wrong
  • Data Fiduciary vs Data Processor - and why the label changes your obligations
  • How the DPDP Rules 2025 change what you actually have to do

Notice and consent

  • What a compliant notice has to say, and what it must not bury
  • Consent, withdrawal, and the Consent Manager mechanism
  • Children’s data and verifiable parental consent

Rights and obligations in practice

  • Data Principal rights and the 90-day response window under Rule 14(3)
  • Grievance redressal, and what a workable internal process looks like
  • Significant Data Fiduciary status: how it is determined and what it adds

When things go wrong

  • Breach notification - the two-stage Rule 7 process, not a single deadline
  • Penalties, and how the Data Protection Board actually assesses them
  • What auditors and regulators ask for, and what satisfies them

Doing the work

  • Data mapping and RoPA - starting from a real system, not a template
  • DPIA under Rule 12: when it is required and how to run one
  • Cross-border transfer, and the practical questions it raises

Starting from zero? Do the free course first.

Our DPDP certification course is genuinely free, self-paced, and covers the Act itself with a real assessment at the end. It is the better starting point if the Act is new to you — and this live course will land much better afterwards.

FAQ

Straight answers

Is this live, or pre-recorded?

Live. Sessions run over Google Meet or Zoom with the instructor present. You can ask questions and get them answered during the session.

When does the next batch start?

Batch dates are shared directly with everyone who registers interest. Register below and we will tell you the next date along with payment details.

Who teaches it?

A practising Data Protection Officer - someone doing this work day to day, not a full-time trainer.

How do I pay?

Registering interest on this page does not charge you anything. We invoice you separately once we confirm your place and the batch date.

Is GST included in the price?

No. GST is charged on top, at 18%. So a student pays ₹4,719 in total and a working professional pays ₹9,439 in total. We show the pre-GST figure because that is the convention for professional training in India, but you will be invoiced the full amount.

How do you check whether I am really a student?

We take you at your word when you register. You may be asked for a student ID before we raise the invoice.

Do I get a certificate?

Certificate details are confirmed with each batch. We would rather tell you the exact terms when you register than promise something vague here.

Is this an accredited or government-recognised qualification?

No, and you should be sceptical of any DPDP course in India that claims otherwise - there is currently no recognised accrediting body for DPDP training. This is professional training, not a statutory qualification, and no certificate is required to work as a DPO in India.

You already have a free DPDP course. Why pay for this one?

They do different things. The free course at /learn teaches you the Act and tests that you have understood it, at your own pace. This course is about applying it - with a practising DPO in the room who can answer the specific question you are stuck on. Do the free one first if you are starting from zero; it costs nothing and this course will land better.

What if I cannot make a session?

Tell us when you register and we will let you know how the batch handles it. We would rather set that expectation honestly up front than promise recordings we have not committed to.

Bring the question you cannot find an answer to.

That is what the live format is for. Register and we will send you the next batch date.
