Overview

Certified Data Professional (eCDP) is an online, self-paced certification program designed to equip new workforce entrants and professionals who work with data as part of their role—not limited to IT—with baseline competency in data management principles. Delivered as a flexible self-learning experience, the course allows learners to progress through the content at their own pace while gaining fundamental knowledge based on internationally recognized ISO standards. It provides the practical foundation employers expect from professionals who work with data in any capacity.

Employers can require this Certificate as proof that professionals demonstrate an understanding of the fundamentals of safe data management based on ISO international standards.
