Meet your privacy challenges head on with virtual online IAPP CERTIFICATION TRAINING

The IAPP (International Association of Privacy Professionals) is recognised as the world’s leading authority on privacy management. IAPP membership and certifications are sought after by privacy professionals across the globe. Velisa Africa Academy is proud to offer the IAPP’s certifications in privacy training, in conjunction with Data Horizons, the official IAPP training partner for Africa.

Certified International Privacy Manager

Privacy Program Management is the how-to training on implementing a privacy program framework, managing the privacy program operational lifecycle, and structuring a knowledgeable, high-performing privacy team.

Those taking this course will learn the skills to manage privacy in an organisation through process and technology—regardless of jurisdiction or industry. The Privacy Program Management training is based on the body of knowledge for the IAPP’s ANSI-accredited Certified Information Privacy Manager (CIPM) certification program.

Data Is One of Your Most Valuable Assets

Every day it is being accessed, shared, managed and transferred by people in your organization—in all departments and at all levels. Unless your employees have a solid understanding of the considerations and challenges involved in managing data, you risk a data breach, diminished customer trust and possible enforcement action.

IAPP training can provide your staff with the knowledge they need to help you meet your privacy program goals of reduced risk, improved compliance, enhanced brand loyalty and more. 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.

In order to help you drive privacy knowledge across your organization, our comprehensive and flexible programs can be suited to your specific needs and availability.

By investing in your staff with this globally recognized IAPP training, you’ll give them the knowledge to make better decisions in their everyday work, which is fundamental to the success of your privacy program.
