Founders' Vision Behind CPOS
We didn’t create CPOS because we wanted to add another certification to the pile. We created it because we couldn’t find any program that taught what we needed to actually run privacy.
Too many courses talk theory. Too few explain how to:
- Run a DPIA in an actual SaaS company
- Implement consent across India, US, Europe
- Automate a DSR workflow
- Make governance real, not just pretty slides
CPOS is our answer to that gap. Built by practitioners. For practitioners.
"We’ve lived through the pain of privacy operations at startups, global MNCs, and everything in between. This is the course we wish we had when we started."
What You Walk Away With
- 4 Specialist Badges, 1 Master Certification
- 20+ Templates, Tools & Dashboards
- Lifetime Forum Access for Q&A and Use Case Support
- LinkedIn Badge & Recognition
- Confidence to handle privacy operations in real companies

Still Thinking?
Don’t. Privacy ops isn’t optional anymore. You don’t need to become a privacy theorist. You need to become a doer.
And CPOS makes sure you get there.
