COBIT 5 provides the next generation of ISACA’s guidance on the enterprise governance and management of IT. It builds on more than 15 years of practical usage and application of COBIT by many enterprises and users from business, IT, risk, security and assurance communities. Today, more than ever, information and related technologies need to be governed, managed and operated in a holistic manner—with a single, integrated process model that provides end-to-end coverage of the roles, responsibilities and practices required. COBIT 5 provides a comprehensive framework that assists enterprises in achieving their objectives for the governance and management of enterprise IT. It helps enterprises create optimal value from IT by maintaining a balance between realizing benefits and optimizing risk levels and resource use. COBIT 5 enables IT to be governed and managed in a holistic manner for the entire enterprise, taking in both the full end-to-end business and IT functional areas of responsibility, while considering the IT-related interests of internal and external stakeholders. COBIT 5 is generic, and is useful for enterprises of all sizes; whether commercial, not-for-profit or in the public sector.

Scenario-Based Case Study and Practical Application

The course is built around a structured case study that supports scenario-driven learning. This learning approach places participants in realistic business situations to help them apply COBIT principles in practice.

The case study provides business-focused challenges through practical situations and structured discussions. Participants analyse governance scenarios that reflect real-life organisational contexts and decision-making processes.

The training emphasises applying COBIT to situations that may occur in the day-to-day professional environment of participants. Through collaborative discussions and problem-solving exercises, participants explore how COBIT can guide governance decisions and improvement initiatives.

This approach ensures participants leave the course with a practical understanding of how COBIT is implemented in organisations, rather than only theoretical knowledge of the framework.

This course prepares participants for the COBIT® 5 Implementation examination.
