12 modules, each with 12 chapters (144 chapters total), text-based, plus downloadable templates and a hand-built implementation playbook delivered alongside course access.
Compliance teams are expected to enforce data policies without clear implementation playbooks or system-specific controls.
The situation this course is for
Regulatory expectations are increasing while customer data systems grow more complex. Compliance officers often lack structured, vendor-agnostic guidance to translate policy into platform configuration, leading to misalignment, rework, and avoidable exposure during audits.
Who this is for
Compliance, risk, and governance professionals in mid-sized organizations implementing or overseeing customer data platforms with accountability for privacy, consent, and audit readiness.
Who this is not for
This is not for data engineers focused solely on pipeline architecture, nor for marketers using CDPs for segmentation only. It is not for vendors selling platform solutions.
What you walk away with
- Translate compliance requirements into CDP configuration rules
- Design audit-ready data provenance and lineage workflows
- Implement consent and preference management aligned with privacy regulations
- Map data flows across platforms with policy enforcement points
- Lead cross-functional CDP governance with confidence and clarity
