The five-day Certified Data Center Management Professional (CDCMP®) is a comprehensive program that investigates the functionality of all elements of a data center facility and the relationships and dependencies between them, with a focus on maintaining consistent reliability, security and integrity of data and the availability of service.

Opening with a solid grounding in the basic design principles, the program progresses to provide an overview of the physical infrastructure elements, through to an understanding of the project management methodology required to deliver complex data center projects.

It also explores the efficient management of the often conflicting operational and maintenance demands required of the data center plant to continuously deliver the business needs. The challenges of regulatory compliance, data center strategies and audit demands are also thoroughly examined. Real-life case studies are used to demonstrate putting theory into practice.

A certified CDCMP® also considers the requirements for compliance, having a full understanding of national and international regulations, codes and standards. During the program, learners will be provided a valuable opportunity to access the latest industry standards.
