Certification: Certified IT Asset Manager
This course addresses each of the Key Process Areas (KPAs) identified within the IBPL that, when combined, empowers an organization and maximizes the value of their IT assets. The course will also review the core processes that encompass the ITAM Program and the projects that will help an organization build a productive and profitable business unit.
The CITAM Course, intended to guide individuals within the profession and align the needs of the organization with ITAM best practices for the benefit of the organization, was originally developed by professional IT Asset Managers to codify a number of existing IAITAM professional development programs. IAITAM’s Certification in IT Asset Management has evolved over the years to accommodate the changes in the profession which caused an evolutionary change in the course as well. This hands-on course will allow professionals to review existing infrastructure, policies and processes and work from the existing model to plan a real-world IT Asset Management Program for the future – one that is applicable to the global workplace and inclusive of a wide dynamic range of issues as well as properly managing IT assets across the enterprise.
The primary purpose of this course is to educate ITAM professionals to manage IT assets while aligning with the organizational business drivers that promote ROI, reduces risk and increases productivity. By attending this course the attendee will be able to understand and utilize the dependencies, relationships and benefits of the KPAs found within an effective IT Asset Management Program; specify and define the duties and responsibilities necessary to be an effective IT Asset Manager; as well as be able to obtain and display an understanding of the resources and commitment necessary to implement a fully functional IT Asset Management Program.

Paul Chang –
This course gives a good overview of the concept on how ITAM interacts with other function team within the organization and giving the overview of the eco-system to future CITAM. My recommendation for further improvement is that the course mainly provides the concept or relationships among department and KPAs, it is better to provide technique to tool that help attendee understand how would it be easier archive and adopt.
