The IT
Governance certification is intended to recognize a wide range of
professionals for their knowledge and application of IT governance
principles and practices. More than 200 CGEIT certificates have been
awarded. It is designed for professionals who have management, advisory,
or assurance responsibilities as defined by a "job practice" consisting
of IT governance related tasks and knowledge. Earning this designation
will enable professionals to respond to the growing business demand for
a comprehensive IT governance program that defines responsibility and
accountability across the entire enterprise.
Certified in the Governance of Enterprise IT™ (CGEIT™) Overview
Boards and executive
management have long understood the need for enterprise and corporate
governance. As information technology (IT) has become more important to
the achievement of enterprise goals and delivery of benefits, there has
been an increasing realization that governance must be extended to IT as
well. IT governance is an integral part of enterprise governance and
consists of the leadership and organizational structures and processes
that ensure that the organization's IT sustains and extends the
organization's strategies and objectives.
ISACA recognized this
shift in emphasis in 1998, and formed the IT Governance Institute (ITGI)
to focus on original research, publications, resources and symposia on
IT governance and related topics. To support and promote this
significant body of work, ISACA and the ITGI are proud to offer a
certification program for professionals charged with satisfying the IT
governance needs of an enterprise.
Taking a lead role in the
establishment and management of information technology infrastructure
and processes, individuals playing a role in IT governance provide
significant support to the Board of Directors and executive management.
The certification program recognizes those who have the necessary level
of professional knowledge, personal skills, and business experience to
maximize the contribution made by information technology to an
enterprise's success while managing and mitigating risks posed by IT.
This certification will
benefit the individual, through recognition of their professional
knowledge and competencies; skill-sets; abilities and experiences, and
will enhance their professional standing. It will also add value to the
enterprises they support through the demonstration of a visible
commitment to excellence in IT governance practices.
The certification process
has been specifically developed for professionals who have a significant
management, advisory, or assurance role relating to the governance of
IT. The certification promotes the advancement of professionals who wish
to be recognized for their IT governance-related experience and
knowledge.
The certification is also
intended to:
support the growing business demands related to IT
governance
increase the awareness and importance of IT governance
good practices and issues
define the roles and responsibilities of the professionals
performing IT governance work
