For the past several months ISACA has been sharing information on the
development of a new certification for professionals who have a significant
management, advisory and/or assurance responsibility in the governance of
information technology (IT). Today, we are proud to provide additional
information on how to qualify and apply for ISACA’s Certified in the
Governance of Enterprise IT™ (CGEIT™) credential.
Supported by the IT Governance Institute (ITGI) and built on ITGI's
intellectual property and input from subject matter experts from around the
world, the CGEIT designation focuses on the five areas of IT
governance--strategic alignment, resource management, risk management,
performance measurement and value delivery--as well as on frameworks that
provide support for IT governance (e.g., COBIT and ITIL). It is designed to
recognize those who have the professional knowledge, personal skills and
business experience to maximize IT’s contribution to an enterprise’s success
and manage and mitigate risks posed by IT. It also adds value to the
enterprises, as the designation demonstrates a visible commitment to
excellence in IT governance practices.
To earn the CGEIT certification, applicants must:
*Pass the CGEIT exam (The first CGEIT exam will be administered in
December
2008) *Adhere to the ISACA Code of Professional Ethics *Agree to comply
with the CGEIT Continuing Education Policy *Provide evidence of appropriate
IT governance work experience as defined by the CGEIT Job Practice
Five years of IT governance experience will fulfill the CGEIT experience
requirement. For those with less than five years of experience, experience
substitutions are available.
A grandfathering program, through which individuals who are highly
experienced in the governance of IT may apply for the certification without
taking the exam, is now available. To earn the CGEIT certification during
this grandfathering period, an applicant must have an additional three years
of experience.
