Answer:
You can nominate a member of your staff. This is the solution most commonly encountered, but you could also hire an external company to provide DPO services to you. The ICO has put out the following guidance on DPO's: https://ico.org.uk/for-organisations/guide-to-the-general-data-protection-regulation-gdpr/accountability-and-governance/data-protection-officers/
Check here our DPO course https://advisera.com/training/eu-gdpr-data-protection-officer-course/
So no formal qualifications are *required* for a DPO, it is just recommended that they do their research properly?
Indeed as mentioned before no formal certifications are required at least for the time being. However, keep in mind that a strong knowledge about the EU GDPR as well as other relevant privacy laws is needed since most likely the DPO will be the one running the whole EU GDPR framework within the company.
