IT law - the legal aspects of information technology

In the CAS IT & Law, participants acquire important know-how about legal issues in IT. IT law covers important and sensitive topics such as IT contracts, data security, records management, copyright and e-business. Graduates of this continuing education course become experts in the legal aspects of IT. They are aware of the potential risks and dangers associated with the Internet and are therefore valued specialists in companies when it comes to information technology. They are regarded as important contacts when it comes to making decisions regarding data protection (e.g. big data, cloud computing, etc.) and are specialists in all aspects of doing business online.

The CAS IT & Law (FH) is divided into three modules and, in addition to content relating to IT law, also teaches very practical know-how, e.g. regarding the purchase and rental of hardware, data transfer or license agreements for software programs. Another very important focus is data protection. A company is dependent on its data being stored legally and securely and being accessible at all times. Graduates of the CAS IT Law are familiar with the legal basis for handling data in Switzerland and abroad and are considered experts in records management. They are familiar with national and international data protection guidelines and know how to react correctly in the event of cybercrime such as hacking, skimming, etc.

If you would like to find out more about the content, costs and implementation dates of the CAS IT & Law (FH) and if you would like to contact the school directly, visit the education portal Ausbildung-Weiterbildung.ch and benefit from comprehensive information documents, which can be ordered directly via the contact form.

Questions and answers

In the IT law course you will also learn about the following areas:

  • Data protection
  • Intellectual property (copyright)
  • E-commerce (conclusion of contracts on the Internet, applicable law, etc.) Records
  • Management (storage, archiving)
  • Cybercrime: phishing, hacking, skimming, espionage, cyberbullying, etc.

The CAS IT and Law provides comprehensive know-how on the legal aspects of IT and IT contracts, records management, data protection and copyright. It also covers topics relating to business transactions on the Internet (e-business) and the risks and dangers of the Internet (cybercrime).

  • Cloud contracts, maintenance contracts, service level agreements (SLA)
  • IT services and projects
  • Purchase and rental of hardware
  • Data transmission and processing
  • Software license agreements
  • Outsourcing and hosting contracts

The topic of data protection IT law is more important today than ever due to advancing digitalization. As a company, you must ensure that all legal requirements are met. Not all processing of personal data requires the consent of the data subject. Consent must only be obtained if a processing activity cannot be justified in any other way. However, the prerequisite for effective consent is that the data subject has been adequately informed in advance.

The costs for the CAS IT and Law are roughly in line with other CAS courses. To familiarize yourself with IT law, you should therefore expect to pay around CHF 5,500. Ask the University of Applied Sciences in advance about the price and the services included.

The CAS in IT Law is aimed at the following professional groups with several years of qualified professional experience:

  • Graduates of a Universities (University, FIT, UAS, UTE)
  • Graduates of Colleges of Higher Education
  • Holders of a federal certificate or a federal diploma

The course is primarily aimed at non-law graduates who wish to train to become a legal specialist. You will acquire specialist legal knowledge and become a sought-after legal expert in your professional life. In IT law, you will provide well-founded answers to legal questions that arise in business practice. However, this does not make you a lawyer or specialist lawyer for IT law.

The CAS IT and Law (UAS) course is a CAS Certificate of Advanced Studies from a University of Applied Sciences.

 

Around 80 percent of the certificate training in IT and Law is completed as online and self-study, while 20 percent takes place in classroom teaching.
