The CIPM – Certified Information Privacy Manager course is the premier training on implementing a privacy program framework, managing the privacy program operational lifecycle and structuring a privacy team.

This training is a robust, interactive opportunity to learn about critical privacy concepts that are also integral to the CIPM exam. While not purely a “test prep” course, this training is appropriate for professionals who plan to certify, as well for those who want to deepen their privacy knowledge. Both the training and the exam are based on the same body of knowledge.

Every organisation has data protection needs.  Every day, we access, share and manage data across companies, continents and the globe. Knowing how to implement a privacy program is an invaluable skill that will help you protect your organisation’s data—and take your career to the next level.
