This CIPM package builds your skill set for U.S. privacy and the CCPA. Learn at your own pace about critical questions organizations must consider when operationalizing the CCPA. Designed to prompt internal discussion and action, the training does not serve as legal guidance. For that, we encourage seeking legal counsel.
International Association of Privacy ProfessionalsThis 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.
This year’s changes resulted in additions to the CIPM body of knowledge. There were no changes to the exam blueprint or to the number of exam questions.
