How to use our CDMP Practice Exam:
This is a 40-question practice exam, replicating the type of questions you’ll find in the CDMP Data Management Fundamentals Exam.
Like the official DAMA CDMP Practice exam, we ask 40 questions that cover the 14 Knowledge Areas of the DMBoK. The CDMP Practice exam is now timed – so you only have 36 minutes to complete the questions. We will provide guidance based on your score in the exam AND your time management, so you can prepare more effectively for the real exam.
You should select the correct answer from the 5 options in each question. Like the CDMP Data Management Fundamentals Exam itself, this is OPEN BOOK – you can refer to a copy of the DMBoK during the test to help score more points.
What do my CDMP exam results mean?
This test will grade your answers and give you a score percentage. We follow the same scoring system that DAMA uses:
- If you score 60% or more, you will be confident of passing the Fundamentals exam and achieving a Certified Data Management Associate grade
- If you score 70% or more, you’ll be confident of passing the CDMP exam and earning the Practitioner grade
- If you score 80% or more, you can be confident of earning the Master level designation – although this requires the student also to pass 2 “Specialist exams”
You will see a full breakdown of the answers you chose vs the correct answers and recommendations for planning your studies based on your performance across all 14 Knowledge Areas that are tested in the real exam.

Think of this as your first step toward CDMP certification. You might have a copy of the DMBoK, or you might be asking yourself “should I buy the DMBoK and chase this qualification?” – either way, taking this quiz is the first step to knowing how you’d perform on the real exam. Here’s how:
Firstly, by taking the exam you’re exposing yourself to questions about the DMBoK. This will help you think more deeply about the content than simply reading the book.
