CCPA/CPRA Awareness Course
California's consumer privacy laws give residents rights over their personal information. The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), also creates obligations for covered businesses.
This course provides essential awareness training for all staff who handle California consumer data, interact with customers, or contribute to compliance efforts. Through clear explanations and practical examples, participants learn what the laws require, how to recognize and respond to consumer requests, and their role in protecting privacy.
Equip your team with the knowledge to navigate California's landmark privacy laws. This comprehensive awareness course covers CCPA and CPRA requirements, consumer rights, request handling, and compliance best practices.

The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) was enacted in 2018, while the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) amended and expanded it in 2020. CPRA added new consumer rights (correction, limiting sensitive PI), created the California Privacy Protection Agency, and introduced stricter requirements. This course covers both.
CCPA/CPRA can apply to for-profit businesses that do business in California, collect California consumers' personal information, determine the purposes and means of processing, and meet at least one of these thresholds: annual gross revenue above $26,625,000 in the preceding calendar year, buy/sell/share personal information of 100,000+ consumers/households, or derive 50%+ of annual revenue from selling/sharing personal information.
The California Privacy Protection Agency can impose administrative fines of up to $2,663 per violation or $7,988 per intentional violation and violations involving the personal information of consumers known to be under 16. Consumers can also bring private lawsuits for certain data breaches.
While both cover privacy compliance, this course focuses specifically on California law requirements, consumer rights under CCPA/CPRA, and US-specific enforcement. If your organisation handles both California and UK/EU data, we recommend taking both courses. Our GDPR Essentials course covers UK and EU requirements.
