Cohort experience
Our students complete their programs in cohorts, encouraging peer-to-peer collaboration and growing the personal and professional networks of our students for years to come.
In the Certificate in Information Privacy, you will gain fundamental knowledge in information principles, legal concepts, operational methods and emerging technologies that define privacy practice today. You will improve your privacy awareness as well as contribute to better the privacy practices within the organizations you serve or work within. Created in collaboration with Canadian privacy leaders and subject matter experts, this part-time, three-course program is offered in a blended format to accommodate the schedules and commitments of working professionals.
You will learn practical, privacy-enabling tools and methods such as a Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA), which assists organizations in identifying and managing the privacy risks arising from new initiatives. You will also learn about Privacy by Design (PbD), a process for embedding privacy-aware features and interfaces in an organization’s product and service development efforts.
