Course Overview:

In the ISO/IEC 38500 model, the governing body is a generic entity (the individual or group of individuals) responsible and accountable for the performance and conformance (through control) of the organization. While ISO/IEC 38500 makes clear the role of the governing body, it also allows that such delegation could result in a subsidiary entity giving more focused attention to the tasks in the governance of IT (such as the creation of a board committee). It also includes delegation of detail to management, as in finance and human resources. There is an implicit expectation that the governing body will require management establish systems to plan, build, and run the IT-enabled organization.

By holding a Certificate, you will demonstrate that you have the professional capabilities and competencies to effectively govern the use of IT within an organization.
