The DPO Monthly is a subscription-based service giving you the chance to watch videos on a variety of practical and helpful topics every month. These deep-dive sessions will be practical and entertaining explorations of key issues, enabling you to learn more about vital topics and support your continuing professional development, without listening to lengthy recitations of the law.
Why should I sign up?
The sessions are aimed at those working in the areas of data protection, information governance, compliance, legal, and other related specialisms. I am based in the UK so that will be reflected in the sessions, however, practitioners in the EU/EEA or with an interest in the GDPR will be well served.

What you get
You will get access to one or two sessions each month: one will be about a core data protection issue and the other will be a purely practical session.
Core data protection issues will include personal data, consent, and the notorious soft opt-in. Practical sessions will focus on scenarios such as using drones, monitoring staff at home, and students / customers recording your staff.
Videos will be view-only and there will also be an audio only version.
If you sign up for one video, you can choose which one you want each month; if you don’t choose, you get the core topic one. If you sign up for both, you get… both. It’s not complicated.
Every three months, there will be a bonus session. Subscribers will be able to influence what it is by voting on the options.
DPO PRO
Alternatively, you can choose the DPO Pro option. This allows you to choose any recorded course in my catalogue, including the ones produced for DPO Monthly, but also courses recorded live and other sessions I produce as recordings, including GDPR, PECR and FOI / EIR courses. It’s your choice every month from the expanding list of anything I’ve got. If you want to see what this includes, click here: Recorded course catalogue
You have to subscribe for a minimum of six months and you can have one or two videos a month. You can roll videos over, but you have to watch everything you’ve paid for within the subscription term you choose unless you renew.
How much is it?
One video: £20 + VAT a month (£200 + VAT if you book a year in advance).
Two videos: £40 + VAT a month (£400 + VAT if you book a year in advance).
DPO Pro
One video per month: £60 + VAT a month (twelve month minimum subscription)
Two videos per month: £100 + VAT a month (six month minimum subscription)
You have to pay for your first term up front; if you want to stick with it, you can then go to a monthly subscription.
T&Cs
There is no minimum length of monthly subscription, but the annual subscription doesn’t come with a refund.
You must agree not to share the videos without permission, but approved sharing won’t be expensive. Discounts are also available for multiple sign-ups, so talk to your boss / budget holder.
Videos will also be available for individual purchase outside the subscription, but they will be standard price (between £80 – £100 + VAT each).
If you sign up later, you will be able to catch up on what you’ve missed for a price. New subscribers will get discounted access to previous sessions on an ad-hoc or all-in basis.
The service starts in January 2025. The first videos will be delivered on the 15th, but you sign up for DPO Pro, you get the videos when you ask for them. If you’d like to sign up, click the appropriate link and I will contact you to arrange payment.
