Frequently asked questions
What is the CDMP Master Learning Path?
The CDMP Master Learning Path is a training program consisting of three courses that provide education on the fundamentals of data management and in-depth knowledge of the two most important disciplines: Data Governance and Data Quality. All content is based on the DAMA framework, the leading international standard in the field today.
How is this training path structured?
The learning path is made up of three main courses:
D – a course that covers the core concepts of data management and all the disciplines outlined in the DAMA framework.
– focused on mastering data governance, one of the most critical and in-demand areas in the field.
– dedicated to the key principles and practices of ensuring high-quality, reliable data. These two specializations—Data Governance and Data Quality—are currently the most important and in-demand in the job market. Each of the three courses not only offers in-depth training but also prepares participants for its corresponding certification exam. The learning path concludes with a training module focused on the human factor and its impact on the success or failure of data projects.
What are the added values of this training path?
This single training path allows you to build or enhance—depending on your current level of experience—your professional role as a leader in data management. The program is designed to be completed in a short time and provides effective preparation on key topics such as data management, governance, and quality. Whether or not you choose to pursue certification, the training equips you with the essential knowledge and skills to lead in the field.
What about certifications?
This training path enables you to take all three certification exams—Data Management Fundamentals, Data Governance Specialization, and Data Quality Specialization—and, depending on your exam scores, achieve the CDMP Practitioner or CDMP Master designation. These are prestigious certifications that grant access to an exclusive group of international data leaders, providing a highly valuable professional credential. Currently, there are fewer than 800 CDMP Practitioners and fewer than 300 CDMP Masters worldwide!
Is prior experience required to attend the courses?
No, the courses are designed to be accessible to both seasoned professionals and those who are just beginning their career in data management. They are also valuable for professionals in related roles—such as data analysts, data engineers, or data scientists—who want to acquire new skills to make their work more effective and aligned with best practices in data management.
