Privacy Course Comparison
The chart below compares some of our privacy courses based on three major goals of privacy awareness. These areas are:
(1) MOTIVATION: Why is privacy important?
(2) DEFINITION: What is personal data?
(3) RESPONSIBILITIES: How is privacy protected?
We have some courses that aim to achieve all three of these goals and other courses that focus on just one of these goals. Courses covering one goal can be fused with courses covering other goals.

About TeachPrivacy and Our Training Philosophy
TeachPrivacy was founded by Professor Daniel J. Solove, the leading expert on privacy and data security law. He is deeply involved in the creation of all training programs because he believes that training works best when made by subject-matter experts and by people with extensive teaching experience.
According to Professor Solove: “Great training isn’t about slickness or tricks. It is about teaching. The goal is to make people understand, care, and remember. Great training is made with genuine passion – to make people love training, it must be made with love. Excellent substance is essential. The material must be explained clearly, understandably, and concretely. The content must be short and to the point – and it must be engaging. Slickness and gimmicks can’t compensate for lackluster substance.”
TeachPrivacy provides privacy awareness training, information security awareness training, phishing training, HIPAA training, FERPA training, PCI training, as well as training on many other privacy and security topics.
Professor Solove is a law professor at George Washington University Law School.
