You have heard about CIPP or DCPLA or CDPSE. Each Certification has a value. Each has an objective to make you conversant with some aspect of Data Protection. But FDPPI-DNV’s CDPP program is different. If it is supplemented with FDPPI-CLC’s CCLP it is even better.

CDPP.CCLP program of FDPPI is a one of kind program that imparts expertise on the knowledge of Indian Data Protection laws, past, present and future, Key Global data Protection laws of the present, and the Indian Cyber Laws, past, present and future.

The program is conducted over virtual interaction as well as through recorded program.

Option is provided to take participation certificate without taking the examination. If an online examination is successfully completed, the participants can get the fully empowered certificate. The examination will also be online and would be proctored.

The faculty will be Naavi, one of the veteran teachers of Cyber Law and Data Protection in India.

Foundation of Data Protection Professionals, the premier Data Protection organization in India of the professionals and by the professionals for the Data Protection Eco System, is organizing a Roundtable discussion on DPDPB 2022 and its impact on the Healthcare sector, in Bangalore on 10th of June.

The event is a physical event and participation is by invitation.

However, the event would be live broadcast the event for the benefit of people outside Bangalore in the Youtube channel -Live section at https://www.youtube.com/naavi9 (Kindly click on the link-live)

Several senior persons from the industry are expected to participate in the event and share their thoughts.

Currently Indian Healthcare sector including hospitals are required to be compliant with ITA 2000 and Section 43A requirements more specifically since health data generated by these organizations is considered “Sensitive Personal Data”. DPDPB 2022 is likely to bring in some modifications in these regulations which should be in place in the next few months.

The event will debate the concerns of the Industry and also set up an SIG on Sectoral implications of DPDPB 2022 for Healthcare sector to take the discussion forward.

FDPPI (Foundation of Data Protection Professionals in India) has launched a unique dual specialization Certification program for creating super specialization in Data Protection. The FDPPI-DNV program will lead to a Certificate of CDPP (Certified Data Protection Professional) and FDPPI-CLC program will lead to a Certificate of CCLP (Certified Cyber Law Professional).

See all the details here:

So far in the industry when we speak of “Data Protection” and “Data Audit” we think of Personal Data only. “Non Personal Data Protection” is often considered the domain of IS professionals who are only Tech Professionals. Personal Data Protection Professionals are conscious of laws such as GDPR or DPDPB 2022 while IS professionals are more focussed on ISO standards such as 27001.

The reality however is that in an organization, the Data Pool consists of “Data” which in some context is considered “Personal” and in some context considered as “Non Personal”. According to Naavi’s Theory of data, “Data is in the beholder’s eyes”. It can be personal and non personal at the same time depending on the user. This is similar to the concept of physics which says that light is both a matter and a wave.

A career Data Protection Professional should therefore be conversant with both Personal Data Protection and Non Personal Data Protection. Unfortunately just as the Curriculum in Engineering and Law are mutually exclusive and makes it difficult to produce “Techno Legal Professionals” at the College level, keeping Information Security and Personal Data Protection exclusive makes it difficult to train “Techno Legal Career”.

Now as a pioneering effort, Naavi in association with FDPPI has started a blended course where both aspects of Cyber Laws such as ITA 2000/8 and the upcoming DIA as well as the upcoming DPDPB 2022 and GDPR are being taught to a single group. This is being done by offering a combo Certification program with FDPPI-DNV certification for Data Protection and FDPPI-CLC certification program for Cyber Laws.

No doubt this is a unique and first of the kind experiment of bringing two disciplines into a single platform. We hope this will be appreciated and will become a norm in the future.

Both Programs will be launched on June 17, 2023. The Data Protection program is scheduled as 3 hours sessions on both Saturdays and Sundays for 4 weeks (8 sessions of 3 hours each)

The Cyber Law Course is presented as a hybrid course. It will be formally launched on June 17, 2023 in the afternoon at 3.30 pm. Firstly 14 hours of recorded version of the course would be made available to students. Then during subsequent Saturdays’ 90 minute interactive sessions will be held on June 24 and July 1st and July 8th to discuss the different aspects of the recorded sessions. The June 24th Session would discuss upto Digital Contracts. July 1st session would discuss the Cyber Crimes and July 8th session will discuss the Compliance issues arising from ITA 2000.

It is optional for students to take the combo offer or restrict themselves to one of the courses.

When the earlier draft of Data Protection Law in India had been proposed by the Indian Government in the form of DPA 2021, the law had combined certain aspects of Non Personal Data Protection also into the DPA 2021 making it a combo act. Hence the reporting of data breach to CERT-In was within the provisions of the Personal Data Protection law. Now in DPDPB 2022, the separation between compliance related to non personal data and personal data has been maintained under two laws namely the Information Technology Act 2000 and DPDPB2022.

However in the current ITA 2000 only Section 43A is being deleted and other sections which may be applied to Personal Data collection, storage and management remains. When the Government comes up with the Digital India Act, the overlapping provisions may be rationalized. But the nature of data is such that the lifecycle of personal data and non personal data may merge. Just as new identification parameters of an individual flowing into an organization may convert the hither to non personal data to personal data, the anonymization process may convert the non personal data to personal data. Hence the two laws are not capable of being completely separated.

Recognizing this, the undersigned has been promoting courses on both Non Personal Data Protection and Personal Data Protection though they are referred to as Course on Cyber Law and Course on Data Protection separately.

As a coincidence, Naavi is now launching a new course on each of these programs simultaneously. On June 17, the course on Data Protection will be commencing as an online course. The Cyber Law Course in an updated form has also been just launched with nearly 15 hours of recorded content. In June the Government has planned to provide an updated version of Digital India Act to replace Information Technology Act and hence the current Cyber Law course will be continued with a course on DIA as available by the end of June.

It is expected that knowledge of both the programs would be a powerful combination which has not been offered as a combo by any organization. Hence this will be unique and will make the participant a “King of Data Protection Law” at least from the awareness aspect.

For both programs certain early bird discounts have been announced and they end today.

The Time to Act is therefore now..Last day of Early Bird Discount…

Naavi has always believed in providing value for the community and hence whenever such programs are conducted, some form of concessions are provided for the participants. Often this is presented as “Early Bird Discount or Membership benefits.

Now the FDPPI-DNV program which costs Rs 40000/- with examination fee will be available at Rs 35000/- till end of today. The Cyber Law program which costs Rs 8000/- with examination fee will be available at Ra 6000/- till end of today. (All prices are inclusive of GST)

Since the target audience for both are different, the two programs are offered as separate programs.

At the special request of a few who suggested that Cyber Law course is also relevant for DPOs , for today only a third offer is being made whereby those who take both the programs till the end of the day will get a cash back voucher of Rs 1000/- and a set of free e-books on Cyber Law worth Rs 900/-.

Such students will pay Rs 41000/- and will receive PayTm voucher of Rs 1000/- as cash back incentive along with thee set of E Books and eligibility to sit for both exams as well as ability to be Registered in the coveted hall of fame register…”Indian National Register of Data Protection Professionals”.

This offer is applicable only till the end of today.

If you believe that Knowledge is Power, this is the time to act.

All the professionals will also get an entry eligibility to the Indian National Register of Data Protection Professionals.

The future of Data Protection would include both personal and non personal data protection and hence completing both courses would be making the professional the “King of Data Protection Knowledge”.
