The Certified Information Privacy Technologist (CIPT) is an operational level qualification for IT professionals who require comprehensive knowledge about how to incorporate appropriate privacy controls into information and communications technology. Developed by the International Association of Privacy Professionals (IAPP) in 2014 and refreshed in 2020, the CIPT is the leading privacy-focused IT certification. In obtaining the CIPT, award holders demonstrate a greater understanding of the techniques necessary to ensure privacy measures in technology systems are aligned with compliance regulations such as the GDPR. By enhancing the privacy skills of your IT professionals, your organisation will be equipped with competent privacy technologists who are able to build and implement solutions that mitigate risk and enhance productivity.
The CIPT examines critical privacy concepts and practices in detail and includes a certification that grants technologists access to IAPP's vast global network, including hundreds of tools and resources to maintain and enhance their skill set.
IAPP Certified Information Privacy Technologists will learn:
- Privacy concepts, strategies and techniques relating to IT
- About consumer privacy expectations
