Who Should Attend:
A successful ITAM program involves several departments in your organization such as budget managers, IT service departments and finance. The ITAM Foundation course is designed for all key personnel in these functions. We recommend that the course is attended by several employees from these areas in order to enable a successful and coherent ITAM focus throughout your enterprise, as well as individuals can also benefit from this foundation course, and are welcome to attend.
Whilst this course has an IT focus, it has been specifically designed for non-IT personnel in mind and so is not full of acronyms or phrases that only IT professionals would know.
