The significance of IT governance can be judged from the fact that ISACA® has introduced a new certification, CGEIT® (effective since December, 2008), just on IT governance. IT governance is to a country’s constitution what management is to the country’s laws. Corporate governance, IT governance, and IT security governance are responsibilities of the board or the senior management. This seminar will address key knowledge areas related to IT governance domains: IT governance framework, IT/business strategy alignment, IT value delivery, risk management, resource management and performance measurement. Various aspects of COBIT, as they relate to IT governance, will also be discussed. Topics covered will map directly to ISACA®’s job practice areas (domains).

Topics to be covered:

1. IT Governance Framework (25%)
2. Strategic Alignment (15%)
3. Value Delivery (15%)
4. Risk Management (20%)
5. Resource Management (13%)
6. Performance Measurement (12%)
