Awarded for completing Safeguard for Non-Profits and passing its exam, demonstrating the ability to run a genuinely sustainable, honestly reported security and data protection programme on a constrained non-profit budget: a minimal credible control set, access management that survives volunteer turnover, funder-ready evidence, and a precise, unembellished reading of a vendor's published non-profit programme terms.
Certificates are designed to be checked, not just displayed.
The credential is valid for 12 months from issue. Its public page states the expiry date, and renewing means passing the current exam again — so the credential always reflects the current material.
