Your expert instructor will get you ready for the following exam and certification, which are not included in your course package.
There are no prerequisites for attending this course, but some knowledge / experience of IT governance is recommended. However, in order to be eligible for receiving the CGEIT certification, you must meet the following requirements:
A minimum of five years experience managing, advising or otherwise supporting IT governance in an enterprise is required for CGEIT certification. This experience must meet these specific requirements, based on the CGEIT Job Practice domains:
- A minimum of one year of experience relating to the definition, establishment and management of a Framework for the Governance of IT. The type and extent of experience accepted is described in CGEIT domain 1 (Framework for the Governance of Enterprise IT).
- Additional broad experience directly related to any two or more of the remaining CGEIT domains is required. The type and extent of experience accepted is described in CGEIT domains 2 through 5. These domains are:
- Strategic Management
- Benefits Realization
- Risk Optimisation
- Resource Optimisation
There are no waivers or substitutions for CGEIT experience, apart from one exception: Two years as a full-time university instructor teaching IT governance related subjects at an accredited university can be substituted for every one year of IT governance experience.
Individuals can take the CGEIT exam prior to meeting the experience requirements. This practice is acceptable and encouraged, although the CGEIT designation will not be awarded until all requirements are met.
Using our engaging learning methodology including a variety of tools, we’ll cover the entire curriculum.
