IT Governance holds a COBIT 5 Update Day in February

/EINPresswire.com/IT Governance Ltd, the leading expert in IT governance and information security training, consultancy, books and tools, will hold the first COBIT 5 Update Day on 23 February in London. The seminar is aimed at IT Service Managers, IT Consultants, IT Auditors, Governance, Risk and Compliance Managers and Business Managers who have an understanding of COBIT 4.1. Places can be booked immediately here: www.itgovernance.co.uk/products/3754.

Alan Calder, CEO of IT Governance, says, "It is vital for anyone who holds the COBIT 4.1 Foundation Certificate or has implemented or audited IT governance using COBIT 4.1 to become familiar with the COBIT 5 key concepts and the differences from COBIT 4.1. We are delighted to deliver the first seminar that is entirely focused on the transition, following confirmation from ISACA, that the COBIT 5 Framework will be published in the next few months. The COBIT 5 Update Day will enable those with an understanding of COBIT 4.1 to readily recognise the enhancements within COBIT 5, and decide upon an approach for migration. We expect a full classroom."

COBIT 5 is considered to be a major strategic improvement providing the next generation of ISACA guidance on the governance and management of enterprise information and technology (IT) assets.

COBIT 5 extends COBIT 4.1 by incorporating the governance activities of ISO 38500 (Corporate Governance of IT), including activities of the complementary ISACA frameworks Val IT, Risk IT, BMIS and ITAF as well as other areas of IT governance developed since COBIT 4.1 was written in 2007.

The benefits of using COBIT 5 include value e-creation through effective governance, management enterprise information and technology (IT) assets; business user satisfaction with IT engagement and services by enabling business objectives as well as compliance with relevant laws, regulations and policies.

The COBIT 5 Update Day is delivered by an experienced ISACA-licensed trainer who has participated in the ISACA team developing the syllabus for the original online COBIT Foundation course launched in 2005 (www.itgovernance.co.uk/products/2295).

Bookings onto the course can be made online here: www.itgovernance.co.uk/products/3754 . Course places can also be booked directly with the friendly, helpful IT Governance service centre team on telephone number +44 (0)845 070 1750.
