Make a difference in your organisation and in your career. The CIPM designation says that you’re a leader in privacy program administration and that you’ve got the goods to establish, maintain and manage a privacy program across all stages of its lifecycle.
The CIPM is the world’s first and only certification in privacy program management. The CIPM program was developed by the International Association of Privacy Professionals (IAPP), which is the world’s largest comprehensive global information privacy community. The CIPM certification also holds accreditation under ISO 17024: 2012.
