Testing 2 September, 2024 or after? Be sure you are prepared for the additional content added to the CIPP/E exam to reflect current changes in the field. Learn more.
Developed in collaboration with the law firms, Bird and Bird, Field Fisher, Wilson/Sonsini and Covington and Burling, the CIPP/E encompasses pan-European and national data protection laws, key privacy terminology and practical concepts concerning the protection of personal data and trans-border data flows.
Our French and German versions were translated from our English exam through a rigorous process using the industry’s most respected translation firms, and following ISO-certified quality assurance processes. No machine translation was employed. Instead, native language speakers and subject matter experts reviewed materials multiple times to ensure accuracy, consistency and fluency.
With the power of ANAB-accreditation behind it, a CIPP/E credential elevates your professional profile by deepening your knowledge and improving your job effectiveness. We constantly update our certification exams, textbooks and training to reflect the latest advances in privacy. The CIPP/E includes critical topics like Schrems II and the GDPR.
GDPR training? The IAPP is the place.
The GDPR includes among its mandates the requirement to appoint knowledgeable data protection officers (DPOs) tasked with monitoring compliance, managing internal data protection activities, training data processing staff, conducting internal audits and more. There’s a lot to know, there’s a lot at stake and there’s a lot of opportunity for privacy professionals with the right training and education.
Achieving a CIPP/E credential shows you have the comprehensive GDPR knowledge, perspective and understanding to ensure compliance and data protection success in Europe—and to take advantage of the career opportunity this sweeping legislation represents.
Add a CIPM credential to the CIPP/E and you’ll be uniquely equipped to fulfill the DPO requirements of the GDPR. The CIPP/E relates to the knowledge a DPO must have concerning the European legal framework of the legislation, and the CIPM the theoretical aspects necessary to lead an organization’s data protection efforts.
The CIPP/E body of knowledge outlines all the concepts and topics you need to know to become certified. It also has an exam blueprint that indicates how many questions from each topic area you can expect on the exam. Both these key documents have also been translated into French and German for anyone pursuing certification in those specific languages. These documents, as well as additional certification resources, can be found here.
We strongly encourage all potential test takers to read our Certification Candidate Handbook before testing for details on our testing policies and procedures.
