Our Courses:
Data Governance, made easy
- Are you keen to implement Data Governance in your firm, but don't know where to begin?
- Have you heard that Data Governance can improve your data quality?
- Do terms like metadata and data steward confuse you?
- Are you less interested in theory and more interested in fixing your data issues?
- Would you like a helping hand to help you in the right direction?
Start making progress
If you get data governance right, many data problems go away. Costs drop, profits rise, and your organisation makes better decisions.
Our lessons make the complex, simple. They are less than 5 minutes long and are tied to real-world data issues your firm will have today.
Learn to craft a Data Strategy
- Do you want to draft a data strategy, but you've never taken an MBA?
- Are you under resourced for data projects, but still burdened with high expectations?
- Do you want to drive the business forward with data and analytic insight?
- Would you like to be able to prioritise your work and get the business to fund it?
- Do you want the tools and templates to run Data Strategy workshops that deliver?
Start making progress
Your data strategy must align to the business strategy. We show you how to create tight business alignment, even if you are locked out of the boardroom.
When you have a great data strategy, your workload becomes manageable and progress becomes real.
Data Monetisation and Valuation
- Would you like to confidently state the ROI of your data products?
- Do you struggle to justify investments in data and analytics?
- Have your previous efforts to deliver value with data gone to waste?
- Do you want your data function to be a profit centre, not a compliance checkbox?
- Do you need a data valuation calculator to easily put a price on your work?
Start making progress
CDOs have 18-24 months to show value, otherwise they’re shown the door.
Unless you know how to confidently state the value of data – an intangible asset – your business will always question whether you are adding value or just costing them time and money.
Looking for a better data career?
- Do you need DAMA certification to get a better job and make more money?
- Have you tried reading the DMBoK, got bored of the theory, and just given up?
- Do you fear exams and loathe tedious studying?
- Would you like to be able to pass the CDMP inside a month?
- Are you concerned about failing the CDMP exam and paying to re-sit?
Start making progress
We hated reading the DMBoK, too. So we created a study method that is quick, easy, and guarantees good results.
You choose the grade you want to achieve, and we do the work to help you achieve it. Soon you’ll have CDMP on your CV and a better job, too.

The cost for this is the same as the CDMP Fundamentals Exam - $311 USD

- So I can clear the CDMP exam as quickly as possible with minimal effort
- So I don't feel like I'm falling behind my peers with less experience who already have the CDMP
- So I know the core DAMA terms and can talk confidently about them in my next interview
