CGEIT - Certified in the Governance of Enterprise IT Training Course

The NEW CGEIT exam offers concise job practice (exam content outline) areas addressing new trends, technologies and changing business needs, designed to keep you at the top of your game and improve business performance. These statements and domains are the results of extensive research and feedback from IT governance subject matter experts from around the world. Numerous reference sources were also utilized including ISACA's COBIT framework.

The landscape for information and technology governance has changed drastically in recent years and continues to change at an increasingly rapid pace. The updates to the job practice reflect these changes and trends.

• Previous job practice areas focused on IT governance. The new job practice focuses on information governance and big data.
• The new job practice accounts for data privacy and governance laws and mandates.
• Job practice Areas reduced from 5 to 4 (removing outdated/obsolete task and knowledge statements and re-aligning based on current trends and role requirements).
• Inclusion of new concepts based on industry trends such as information governance to account for emerging technologies.

These statements are intended to depict the tasks performed by individuals who have significant management, advisory, or assurance role relating to the governance of IT and the knowledge required to perform these tasks. They are also intended to serve as a definition of the roles and responsibilities of the professionals performing IT governance work.
