The rapid pace and scope of changes affecting the profession, privacy and access professionals — and those working in affiliated domains — means practitioners must continually update and enhance their knowledge and skills.
It also means individuals and organizations are hungry for effective privacy and access education programs from trusted and trustworthy sources.
PACC works with institutions to help them develop credible and reliable education programs that reflect the generally accepted levels of knowledge, skills, ethical standards and conduct that define the profession as set out in the Core Competencies and Professional Standards, the Common Body of Knowledge for Information Privacy and Access to Information, and the Statement of Ethical Principles and Professional Conduct.
PACC also organizes cross-sectoral and multidisciplinary training workshops, seminars and conferences across Canada that provide practical, hands-on and interactive training so you can learn from the experts and better equip yourself to lead through industry, technological and legislative changes.
PACC training is designed for privacy and access professions and for people in affiliated professions who are interested in learning more about access and privacy laws, practices and processes.
PACC programs qualify for Continuing Professional Development credits applicable toward PACC Professional Certification, and may also qualify for CPD credits recognized by other professional associations and governing bodies.
