Course overview

Data needs consistent management. The course examines accuracy and accessibility in organisational decisions alongside regulatory and legal requirements, operational efficiency and customer satisfaction, then introduces the knowledge areas within the DAMA Wheel. CDMP preparation covers the essential concepts and context diagrams alongside activities, deliverables and roles in each area.

The workshop works through DMBoK Version 2. Delegates examine goals and principles, organisational culture and responsibilities, practices and techniques, and the technologies used in managing data. Introductory governance and quality topics lead into architecture, modelling, metadata and document management. Integration, reference and central entity data, warehousing and business intelligence follow, with ethics, storage operations and security in the final module. Exercises and group work accompany the preparation for the Data Management Fundamentals examination.
