PDPF — EXIN Privacy and Data Protection Foundation
EXIN's foundational privacy certification covering GDPR basics and data protection principles. Not DoD 8140 approved. Particularly recognized in Netherlands and Benelux markets where EXIN originates. A reasonable entry point to GDPR awareness training, though IAPP's CIPP/E is the more globally recognized option at intermediate and above. Best suited as a structured awareness credential for non-privacy professionals who need documented GDPR foundation knowledge.
