The world of Information Privacy and Access-to-Information is changing quickly with new technologies, laws, and expectations. Earning a PACC professional designation — Associate (AAPP), Chartered (CAPP), or Master (MAPP) — indicates to discerning employers, clients, and colleagues that:
Your skill, experience, and education meet or exceed the required minimums set out by the National Advisory Committee
You engage in continuous professional development
You have met the other requirements outlined in the Certification Handbook
Examinations Exams reflect the ability to study for and pass an exam, but are not a reliable indicator of skill, experience, or education. That is why PACC Professional Certification is based on a rigorous and unbiased process founded upon demonstrable skill + experience + education.
References Candidates are required to submit a minimum of three professional references who can attest to their work experience as it relates to privacy, access, and data protection.
