In each session, the work materials will be published in Aula Global and the tasks to be carried out will be identified to the students. . In the development of some sessions, the students will analyze - individually or in groups - different practical cases. Fundamentally, work will be done to obtain sufficient knowledge that will be useful to them in their professional future, such as searching for AEPD resolutions and the like, CTBG and jurisprudence on the topics studied. In those that are pertinent, an attempt will be made to offer a comparative approach that allows analyzing the subject under study from a local, national and international dimension.
