The “how” of privacy and technology, and why you need it, the CIPT is accredited under ANSI/ISO standards 17024:2012.
The CIPT is the first and only certification of its kind worldwide. It was launched by the International Association of Privacy Professionals (IAPP) in 2014 to meet the growing need that only technology professionals can fulfil—securing data privacy at all stages of IT product and service lifecycles.
The IAPP’s certifications in privacy and data protection law and practice have plugged thousands of professionals into the information economy. Now technology professionals like you can take privacy knowledge—and your career—to a higher level.

Certificate Exam
The IAPP uses computer-based exams, which are administered through Pearson VUE testing centres at locations throughout the world. Available testing centres can be viewed upon scheduling an exam. You will receive your results immediately upon concluding your exam, and a confirmation print out will be provided by the testing centre. Exam results will update in the IAPP system after one business day.
All results are placed on a common scale, ranging from 100 to 500. The passing score for all IAPP exams is 300 (which does not represent 50 percent). Typically, passing scores range between 65 and 80 percent correct, depending on the program and exam form.
Candidates unsuccessful on the examination are permitted to sit for the next exam administration at a reduced fee of $375.
