Become the leader behind an effective privacy program. This instructor-led CIPM training equips experienced professionals to design, implement and manage operational privacy programs across any organisation, building real-world management capability while preparing you to earn the globally recognised IAPP Certified Information Privacy Manager credential.
Our two-day instructor-led online CIPM training course is designed to build practical skills in privacy program management while supporting participants preparing for the IAPP’s globally recognised Certified Information Privacy Manager (CIPM) certification. The CIPM is the world’s first and only certification in privacy programme management, demonstrating the ability to make a privacy programme work in practice and to manage day-to-day data protection operations within an organisation.
The certification was developed by the International Association of Privacy Professionals (IAPP), the world’s largest global information privacy community and resource, and is accredited under ISO 17024:2012. This course aligns to the IAPP framework and focuses on the practical application of privacy program management.
Delivered online over two full days, the course provides hands-on insight into implementing privacy program frameworks, managing the operational lifecycle of a privacy program and building a high performing privacy function. Participants will develop the skills to manage privacy through effective processes and technology, applicable across jurisdictions and industries, while also receiving structured guidance for those intending to sit the CIPM exam.
There are no formal prerequisites for this course. However, participants are expected to have some prior experience in privacy, data protection or a related field. This course is ideal for those looking to formalise their existing knowledge through a globally recognised IAPP certification and to enhance their professional opportunities within the information economy.
