Overview

The Certified Privacy Governance Lead - CPGL™® designation is the first industry certification which addresses data protection risks with a global and comprehensive approach.

Certified Privacy Governance Lead - CPGL™® is a comprehensive certification program which leverages international security standards and privacy laws to teach candidates on how to protect personal and business data based on risks residing inside or outside of the information systems.

Also, many of the global data security standards and privacy laws overlap to some extent which are addressed cohesively in the comprehensive CPGL™® data protection training program to educate candidates on how to address risks and compliance requirements efficiently. We believe that once CPGL™® candidates understand the data protection risks as well as the risk management processes, they can then leverage the industry best practices and standards to design their data protection strategies and incident management plans based on identified risks which also meet the regulatory requirements.

Successful completion of the CPGL™® Certification demonstrates to employers and others that the candidate possesses a solid knowledge of data protection law, as well as an understanding of the practical implications for organisations of the current legal requirements and the requirements of the upcoming General Data Protection Regulation.

The Certified Privacy Governance Lead - CPGL™ is a foundational credential awarded by ITQMA to professionals who have demonstrated core competency in project frameworks
