What the COBIT Design and Implementation Exam Covers
The COBIT Design and Implementation certificate builds on your understanding of COBIT by testing whether you can design and implement a governance system. It affirms your ability to understand, design and implement programs for the enterprise governance of IT (EGIT), so the enterprise gets the most value from its information and technology.
The exam is computer-based and remotely proctored, and registration is continuous, so you can register at any time. ISACA also requires exam eligibility before you can schedule.
ISACA states that the COBIT 2019 Design and Implementation certificate program will be replaced by the COBIT 7 Design and Implementation certificate in 2027. Check ISACA's page for the exact timing and which version applies to you.
