Both complete unofficial IAPP study kits by Mumbai lawyer Apoorva Sharma: AI governance (AIGP) and Asia privacy law (CIPP/A), with books, question banks, mock exams and handouts.
This AIGP and CIPP/A exam prep bundle contains both complete, unofficial IAPP study kits written by Apoorva Sharma, a lawyer based in Mumbai, India: the AIGP Exam Prep Kit for AI governance and the CIPP/A Exam Prep Kit for Asia privacy law. Together they comprise two study books (607 and 588 pages), two practice and mock exams volumes, four mock exams, two workbooks and 16 handouts. It suits privacy professionals adding AI governance, or AI governance professionals adding Asian data protection law.
The IAPP's Artificial Intelligence Governance Professional (AIGP) certification covers foundations of AI governance; laws, standards and frameworks; governing AI development; and governing AI deployment and use. The IAPP's Certified Information Privacy Professional/Asia (CIPP/A) covers privacy fundamentals and the data protection laws of Singapore, Hong Kong and India, with themes common to all three. Confirm current examination details directly with the IAPP.
The two subjects meet in practice: the AIGP book gives two chapters to data protection law and AI and covers India and Singapore among other jurisdictions, while the CIPP/A book treats those regimes in depth.
AIGP Exam Prep Kit (Book + Mock Exams), 794 pages of PDF
CIPP/A Exam Prep Kit (Book + Mock Exams), 752 pages of PDF
A one-page bundle Start Here file suggests an order of study, and each kit has its own Start Here page with 4-, 6- and 8-week plans.
Prepare for one examination at a time and follow the 4-, 6- or 8-week plan in that kit. Many candidates take CIPP/A first because its fundamentals and India chapters support the AIGP book's data protection chapters; either order works.
Apoorva Sharma is a lawyer based in Mumbai, India, with more than eight years of experience in data privacy (including India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023), Trust and Safety, and commercial and regulatory work. She has done that work at Uber, Junglee Games (Flutter Entertainment) and Adfactors PR. Her practice sits where data protection, platform safety and regulatory compliance meet, which is why the books explain how rules operate inside an organisation as well as what they say.
No. Both kits are independent, unofficial study guides by Apoorva Sharma and are not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by the IAPP. The Bodies of Knowledge were used only as topic maps, and no IAPP wording or question is reproduced. Use the IAPP's own candidate materials for authoritative examination information.
No. Every question in the bundle is an original practice question written by the author. None is drawn from, based on or intended to reproduce an actual AIGP or CIPP/A examination item. The explanations show why the keyed answer is best and point back to the chapter that teaches the topic.
Yes. The bundle contains the complete AIGP Exam Prep Kit and the complete CIPP/A Exam Prep Kit, each with its book, practice and mock exams volume, workbook, handouts and DOCX files, plus a bundle Start Here page. Bought separately, the two kits cost ₹10,000 / US$118.
Either order works. Many candidates start with CIPP/A because its privacy fundamentals and its chapters on India's DPDP Act support the data protection chapters of the AIGP book. If your immediate work is on AI programmes or the EU AI Act, starting with AIGP is equally reasonable.
No. Both kits are text-based, supplied as PDFs and editable Word files. Each handout names the book chapters it supports, each kit has its own Start Here page with 4-, 6- and 8-week plans, and every reading and question set in the study plans is included in the download.
