Certified Information Privacy Technologist (CIPT)

The “how” of privacy and technology, and why you need it.

The CIPT is the first and only certification of its kind worldwide. It was launched by the IAPP in 2014 to meet the growing need that only tech pros can fill—securing data privacy at all stages of IT product and service lifecycles.
The IAPP’s certifications in privacy and data protection law and practice have plugged thousands of professionals into the information economy. Now technology pros like you can take privacy knowledge—and your career—to a higher level.

DATA IS ONE OF YOUR MOST VALUABLE ASSETS

MEET YOUR PRIVACY CHALLENGES HEAD ON WITH IAPP TRAINING

The IAPP offers privacy and data protection training programs specifically designed to extend that knowledge to those on your team requiring a solid understanding of privacy principles and practices.
