The IAPP introduced nine new Privacy Law Specialists Feb. 7. The member directory now reflects all members who have obtained the PLS designation, which can be accessed at the Full Story link below. The distinction carries with it an acknowledgment that a candidate has successfully demonstrated knowledge of relevant privacy laws, regulation and technology; a commitment to staying ahead of new developments in the field; and substantial time devoted to practicing law related to safeguarding personal information. Those interested in pursuing their PLS should contact pls@iapp.org to start the process. The current application window ends March 31. (IAPP member login required.)
