Gordon Yu, Esq., MBA passed the CIPP/E on his first try. What about you?
How to Pass the CIPP/E Santa Clara Law administered an old version of the CIPP exam in January 2015 to over 20 of its law students. Prof. Eric Goldman reports that only half of them passed. Furthermore, he reports, "I didn't see any clear correlation between law school GPA and passage rates." Prof. Goldman's students agreed that the CIPP is a test of "minutiae." They recommended memorization and recitation to pass. They're right. I recommend you recite (read out loud) the contents of this book as you work through it. Why This Book Exists First, I was unimpressed by IAPP's training materials. The $75, 382-page IAPP book wastes the test-taker's time by drowning them in a deluge of unnecessary detail. Ignore it. Then there's IAPP's $1,000 CIPP/E training. This book discusses my concerns with that training. Don't worry about going off-brand. IAPP FAQ #7 states, "to maintain accreditation, ISO requires a separation between the IAPP's certification and training departments." And thank God for that. Second, this book puts the test-taker on equal footing as someone who has $1,000 to spend. Whether IAPP's $1,000 price tag is reasonable is beyond the scope of this book. Third, many privacy professionals planned to take the CIPP/E after they finished their GDPR implementations. I wanted to help and support them.
