On July 17, 2017, the Italian Data Protection Authority (DPA), the Garante per la Protezione dei Dati Personali, approved the use of computer systems to verify the correspondence between the identity of attorneys enrolled in professional training e-courses (CLEs trainings) and that of people actually connected to the events. The system aims at preventing participants from avoiding attribution of CLEs credits to attorneys that simulated their participation in distance learning courses.
