Education

IEEE courses offer professional development hours (PDHs) and continuing education units (CEUs) to help engineers maintain professional licenses and demonstrate a commitment to professional development.

 

IEEE Digital Privacy Course

Digital Privacy: Principles, Regulations, and Ethics

Length: 1 hr | Earn 1 PDH / 0.1 CEUs

Digital Privacy: Principles, Regulations, and Ethics

In collaboration with IEEE Educational Activities, we are happy to announce our first course on Digital Privacy. In this course, we introduce privacy as a concept and clarify common misconceptions surrounding privacy, leading to defining digital privacy and introducing a privacy taxonomy capturing common privacy-related violations. We also focus on core concepts necessary in the organizational context including common privacy principles. In addition, we focus on the key drivers of digital privacy around the globe, namely seminal laws and regulations. Finally, we explore the ethical foundations of privacy and discuss the use of the ethical framework to help practitioners make sound decisions in complex situations.

AI Standards: System Design Considerations for Data Privacy

Length: 1 hr | Earn 1 PDH / 0.1 CEUs

AI Standards: System Design Considerations for Data Privacy

This course focuses on design considerations and how the use of data and the data lifecycle play a fundamental role in privacy design. The goals of the course include exploring how software engineers ensure that privacy engineering requirements are satisfied within the contexts of use, end-user, third-parties, and potential re-purposing of the application or service developed. The course provides practical tips and guides as techniques the software engineer or developer can use to become versant in privacy design. A software engineer or developer can also implement these concepts into their organization’s workflows. Topics include review of fundamental data and design considerations related to software engineering as it relates elements of a privacy assessment to software engineering and development; review data lifecycle as it relates to software engineering and privacy assessment; identifying practical techniques to map requirements to privacy controls and evaluation of privacy controls with use cases and user stories, ensuring functional and non-functional requirements are satisfied equally.

AI Standards: Configuring Systems for Privacy

Length: 1 hr | Earn 1 PDH / 0.1 CEUs

AI Standards: Configuring Systems for Privacy

The goals of this course are to familiarize the software engineer with key elements and concepts that can enhance privacy capabilities and safeguards in the software engineering and development process. Practical techniques are used to help the learner understand how to harness the assessment process to enhance privacy requirements and privacy-related controls. By the end of this course, you will understand how privacy assessments integrate into software engineering and software development models with an emphasis on fundamentals. Topics include understanding the elements of a privacy assessment as it relates to software engineering and development; reviewing the stakeholders in a privacy assessment and the context of that assessment as it relates to requirements development; understanding the organizational stakeholders and their roles within the execution of a privacy assessment.
