On completion of this 3 day training course, students will be able to understand the principles and objectives of COBIT. Identify and know when to use the various components of COBIT. Understand the ITGI’s approach to IT Governance and how COBIT supports this scope and plan IT Management and Governance initiatives based on COBIT. Assess IT Management Capability using the COBIT Maturity Models and Control Objectives. Plan control improvements using Control Objectives and Control Practices. Create a Performance Measurement framework using COBIT Metrics and Scorecards. Understand how COBIT aligns with other best practice frameworks and standards such as ITIL, ISO2000, ISO17799 and ISO27001.

Over the years, best practice frameworks have been developed and promoted to assist in the process of understanding, designing and implementing enterprise governance of IT (EGIT). COBIT 2019 builds on and integrates more than 25 years of development in this field, not only incorporating new insights from science, but also operationalizing these insights as practice. From its foundation in the IT audit community, COBIT has developed into a broader and more comprehensive information and technology (I&T) governance and management framework and continues to establish itself as a generally accepted framework for I&T Governance.
