Training course outline

Created by Alan Calder, the Implementing IT Governance three-day training course delivers foundation training to raise awareness, build knowledge and develop a complete understanding of IT governance. Effective IT governance is acknowledged as the key to strategic IT management in all successful organisations. But with so many related standards and frameworks such as ISO 27001, COBIT® and ITIL® to choose from, how can managers govern effectively without spending excessive time and cost on rigid management processes?

  • Understand and define IT governance and its best practice
  • Achieve the alignment of IT and business plans
  • Navigate and integrate all the currently available IT governance frameworks
  • Identify and manage IT risk across the enterprise
  • Implement an IT governance framework and measure the results

The course combines a high level of academic content plus practical guidance on implementation. It also provides opportunities to link growing understanding of IT governance best practice to each delegate’s corporate environment or circumstances.
