IT Asset Management Essentials™

COURSE OVERVIEW

This 3-day certification course provides comprehensive knowledge on all the key elements needed for strong IT asset management. Students will learn the essential concepts necessary for the effective acquisition and life cycle management of hardware, software, and mobile assets.

Today’s increasingly complex business landscape can be a challenge for organizations to manage all their IT hardware and software assets. As IT departments are looking to operate at peak efficiency while minimizing waste and ensuring they remain in compliance, there is a need to understand the full picture of an IT Asset Management (ITAM) program.

This course combines theory with hands-on exercises so students can apply the concepts in practice. As a result, this training is more consultative in nature, which is more practical for your organization’s needs.

Benefits:

  • This course syllabus is focused on what matters most – practical guidance to reduce risk, manage the IT asset life cycle, and improve compliance
  • The training is more like consulting – it provides hands-on learning that allows students to better apply concepts quickly in their organization
  • Features guidance on concepts like IoT, mobile assets, cloud-based assets, and more!
