What about for non-attorneys?

Yes, I asked the partner in charge of CLEs and he approved the cost of the training course and the exam.

I asked and was told no from my BL V20 firm. Two partners said they’d chip in $200.

Yes

I have limited privacy experience despite being hired for that reason… Have my CIPM and CIPP/US /E and /C. Remote preferred; hubs is pilot with cool intl transfer opportunities. Money isn’t issue.
