The course provides a 2-day introduction to IT Asset Management. It is aimed at anyone who is new to ITAM, including IT administrators, CFOs, project managers, and other IT roles. It is accessible to those without an IT background, since it does not contain any IT-specific terminology.
ITAM programs in a business are implemented interdepartmentally, including roles such as budget managers, IT service departments and finance. As such, this course is aimed at people from all such departments.
For the best experience with ITAMF, it is recommended that employees from each area attend together to best implement ITAM practices upon completion of the material.
At the end of the course, an examination will be available to all participants.
