I am not a privacy professional but want to become one. Just bought the CIPP/US book and need to study for the exam. Any tips?

If you are looking for privacy resources Prof. Solove’s conferences are great and go into more detail. IAPP tends to be 101 level but a great place to network.

Hi all! I’m inclined on taking up the CIPM training and certification exam. I’m already a certified Data Protection Officer in the Philippines. I intend on skipping CIPP as it applies to the US and EU.

How difficult was the exam? Can you share your experience studying for the CIPM exam? Is it advisable to skip CIPP?

Many thanks in advance.
