Frequently Asked Questions

What is GDPR in compliance?

GDPR in compliance refers to an organization’s adherence to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), a legal framework established by the European Union to protect the personal data and privacy of individuals. Compliance involves implementing policies, processes, and security measures to ensure lawful data processing, safeguard individuals' rights, and demonstrate accountability to supervisory authorities.

What is the difference between CIPT, CIPM, and CIPP?

CIPT, CIPM, and CIPP are three distinct privacy certifications from the IAPP, each targeting different roles within data protection.

CIPT (Certified Information Privacy Technologist) focuses on embedding privacy into technology and systems, making it ideal for IT and security professionals. CIPM (Certified Information Privacy Manager) centers on managing privacy programs and operations, suited for privacy leaders and DPOs. CIPP (Certified Information Privacy Professional), available in regional versions like CIPP/E for Europe, addresses legal and regulatory frameworks, making it best for legal and compliance professionals working with data protection laws.

When does the course start and finish?

GDPR and Compliance starts now and never ends! It is a completely self-paced online course - you decide when you start and when you finish.
