GDPR & Data Privacy Fundamentals Certification

Understanding privacy and security isn't just a compliance checkbox — it's a way to build and keep trust with customers and stakeholders. Getting this right helps organizations ensure legal compliance, build trust and reputation, reduce cyber and data risks, and gain a competitive advantage over those who treat data protection as an afterthought.

DataCamp Certification is included with your premium subscription, so there are no additional costs. When you subscribe you will have access to learning materials to prepare for your certification, practice assessments and exams and the certification itself.

Yes! As part of your subscription, you will have access to our content library that includes hundreds of hours of courses, practice and projects. You won't need to complete it all though. We have curated a series of tracks that will guide you through building the core skills you will need for certification — the GDPR and Data Privacy Fundamentals track is the direct preparation route for this certification. Once you feel ready, we also provide a range of resources to help you prepare for the exams themselves, giving you a chance to experience the process before you start.

For DataCamp Certifications you can take the exams whenever you want. Just like the rest of the DataCamp platform, we have designed the certification process so that you can fit it into your schedule. Once you start the exam, you will have 45 minutes to complete it, and you will have 30 days overall to complete all of the requirements. Otherwise, the process is designed so that everyone has the opportunity to get certified.

Our Fundamentals Certifications do not expire. As they are designed to show proficiency of fundamental knowledge that is unlikely to change over time.
