The live, six-week (every Thursday), online training course, DMBOK and CDMP Preparation: Data Management Fundamentals, covers all Data Management disciplines as outlined in the DAMA International Data Management Body of Knowledge (DMBOK). Led by instructor Mark Horseman (a CDMP Master), this course offers a comprehensive foundation in the various disciplines across the Data Management spectrum. 

By attending this course, participants will learn about all the core DMBOK Data Management concepts, illustrated with real-world examples of how these disciplines are applied. Additionally, this course serves as preparation for the DAMA International Certified Data Management Professional (CDMP) exam, providing students with a solid understanding of a broad range of concepts and their practical applications across various industry examples. Students will also have the opportunity to practice for the exam by discussing sample questions in each section. 

Furthermore, this training introduces students to the different levels of the CDMP designation and helps consolidate their existing knowledge by reinforcing Data Management topics contained in the CDMP syllabus. This DAMA International-endorsed live, online training was developed in collaboration with DAMA International, DATAVERSITY, and with the assistance of Chris Bradley, the VP of Professional Development at DAMA. 

This course addresses both the DMBOK Version 2.0 and DMBOK Revised Edition.
