Awareness of the need for information, promote and ensure the protection of the rights of individuals with regard to the processing of personal data, as well as the need for joint efforts to implement these values, on January 28, 2025, the National Center for Personal Data Protection (NCPDP), represented by the Director Victoria MUNTEAN signed the Training Plan in the field of personal data protection with the General Inspectorate of Police (GIP), represented by the Chief, Viorel CERNĂUĂȚEANU, and with the General Inspectorate of Border Police (GIBP), represented by the Chief, Ruslan GALUȘCA for employees of the structural subdivisions of the GIBP and GIP.

The primary goal of the above-mentioned training plans is to raise awareness of the employees of the GIP and GIBP structural subdivisions on the principles of personal data protection and to ensure the correct implementation/application of the legal provisions in the field of data protection in their daily work. The training plans have been drawn up and approved by mutual agreement and provide for offline training in the GIP and GIBP structural subdivisions.

At the same time, we would like to point out that the strengthening of interinstitutional cooperation at the national level, in order to reinforce the actions aimed at raising society’s awareness of the importance of the personal data protection, as well as to increase the level of correct interpretation and consistent application of the legal provisions in the field of the personal data protection by the actors involved in the processing of personal data, remains one of the priorities of the NCPDP for 2025, and only in the month of January, three cooperation agreements have already been signed with public institutions, such as General Inspectorate of Migration, General Inspectorate of Police and General Inspectorate of Border Police.

The above-mentioned cooperation agreements are also part of the activities planned to be organized in the context of the 19th European Data Protection Day.
