    Skills You Will BuildAcross the COBIT 5 Implementation Lifecycle

    COBIT 5 Implementation training builds the applied skills to plan, lead and sustain an IT governance improvement programme. By the end of the course you can run the seven-phase lifecycle and prepare confidently for the open-book PeopleCert exam.

    Making the Case for Governance

    In COBIT 5 Implementation training you will learn to identify the drivers, pain points and regulatory pressures for IT governance, build a compelling business case, and secure the executive sponsorship a governance improvement programme needs to start.

    Applying the Seven-Phase Lifecycle

    Work through the full COBIT 5 implementation lifecycle, from identifying drivers and assessing the current state to defining the target state, building the roadmap, implementing change, evaluating outcomes and sustaining momentum.

    Leading Change Enablement

    Apply the COBIT 5 change enablement cycle of awareness, desire, knowledge, ability and reinforcement. Plan stakeholder engagement and communication, and manage resistance so governance improvement is adopted, not just designed.

    General

    What is COBIT 5 Implementation certification?

    COBIT 5 Implementation is the intermediate level of the COBIT 5 scheme. It validates your ability to apply the COBIT 5 implementation approach to plan and manage an IT governance improvement programme, covering the seven-phase lifecycle, change enablement, programme management and continuous improvement.

    Who should take COBIT 5 Implementation training in Bulgaria?

    It suits IT governance managers, IT risk and compliance leads, consultants, enterprise architects and CIOs who lead or support governance improvement. In Bulgaria it is especially relevant for banking, IT outsourcing and shared-service professionals working under DORA and NIS2.

    Is COBIT 5 Implementation worth it in Bulgaria?

    Yes. With DORA in force and NIS2 widening scope by mid-2026, Bulgarian employers increasingly need professionals who can raise IT governance maturity. The credential maps to roles from governance manager to IT director and CIO, which command strong salary bands in euro.

    What are the prerequisites for COBIT 5 Implementation?

    COBIT 5 Foundation certification is required. The Implementation exam assumes Foundation knowledge of the framework, including the five principles, seven enablers and the process reference model, so you must hold Foundation before sitting the Implementation exam.

    Is COBIT 5 recognised internationally?

    Yes. COBIT is a globally recognised standard for IT governance, and the exam is delivered by PeopleCert, which operates in over 200 countries. The credential is valued by employers worldwide for governance leadership, consulting and GRC roles.

    Pricing

    How much does COBIT 5 Implementation training cost in Bulgaria?

    Fees vary by delivery format and schedule, and are quoted in euro following Bulgaria's 2026 euro adoption. Instructor-led COBIT 5 Implementation training pricing is available on request. Request a quote and a learning advisor will confirm the current fee.

    What is included in the course fee?

    The training fee typically includes aligned courseware, case studies, mock exams and practice questions, first-attempt exam guidance and learner support. Many packages also include the PeopleCert exam voucher. Confirm the exact inclusions when you request a quote.

    Is the PeopleCert exam fee included in the training price?

    Exam inclusion depends on the package. The COBIT 5 Implementation exam is delivered by PeopleCert, and the voucher is often bundled with the training. Ask a learning advisor to confirm whether the exam voucher is included in your chosen option.

    Do you offer corporate or group discounts?

    Yes. We offer corporate group training with customised schedules and volume-based pricing for IT governance, risk and compliance teams. Ask about corporate or group pricing for a tailored quote for your organisation.

    What payment options are available?

    We accept major credit and debit cards and bank transfers, and offer instalment options on selected plans. Speak with a learning advisor to choose the option that suits you.

    Exam

    What is the format of the COBIT 5 Implementation exam?

    It is an open-book, objective-testing examination. You may use only the COBIT 5 Implementation book and the COBIT 5 Enabling Processes Guide. Questions are scenario-based and require you to apply the implementation approach, not just recall facts.

    How many questions are on the exam and how long is it?

    The exam has four questions, each worth 20 marks, for 80 marks in total. You have 2.5 hours (150 minutes) to complete it. All four questions are scored, with no unscored pretest questions.

    What is the passing score for the exam?

    The pass mark is 50%. You need 40 marks or more out of the 80 available to pass. Because questions are scenario-based, focus on applying the seven-phase lifecycle rather than memorising the guides.

    Which materials are allowed in the open-book exam?

    Only two references are permitted: the COBIT 5 Implementation book and the COBIT 5 Enabling Processes Guide. No other materials are allowed, so exam technique includes knowing which guide to use for each type of question.

    How is the exam delivered and what if I do not pass?

    The exam is delivered online proctored through PeopleCert OnVUE, available 24/7, or at authorised test centres. If you do not pass first time, our first-attempt guidance and retake support help you prepare for a re-sit. Verify the re-sit policy with PeopleCert.

    Course Content

    What topics does the COBIT 5 Implementation training cover?

    The course covers the four examined topic areas: the need for a governance framework and the implementation lifecycle, change enablement, programme management, and continuous improvement, all aligned to the COBIT 5 Implementation Exam Syllabus (2022 version).

    What are the seven phases of the implementation lifecycle?

    They are: what are the drivers; where are we now; where do we want to be; what needs to be done; how do we get there; did we get there; and how do we keep the momentum going. The lifecycle is a continuous improvement cycle, not a one-off project.

    Is the courseware aligned to the latest syllabus?

    Yes. The courseware is aligned to the COBIT 5 Implementation Exam Syllabus (2022 version), which applies the COBIT 5 framework at application level across the four topic areas and the seven-phase implementation lifecycle.

    Do I need COBIT 5 Foundation knowledge for the course?

    Yes. Foundation knowledge is assumed and is not re-taught. The training builds on the five principles, seven enablers and process reference model to apply the implementation approach to realistic governance improvement scenarios.

    Are mock exams and practice questions included?

    Yes. The programme includes scenario-based practice questions and mock exams mapped to the four-question, open-book format, so you can identify weak areas and build readiness for exam day.

    Enrollment

    How do I enrol in COBIT 5 Implementation training?

    You can enrol through the Invensis Learning website. Choose your preferred format, complete payment, and you will receive access to schedules, courseware and learning resources. A learning advisor can guide you through the steps.

    What training formats are available?

    We offer live virtual (online) instructor-led training, onsite classroom training, and focused one-to-one sessions, plus customised corporate group training. Choose the format that fits your schedule across Bulgaria.

    How long is the COBIT 5 Implementation training?

    The programme runs for 16 hours, typically delivered as two full days or four half-days depending on the schedule. It covers all four topic areas at application level and prepares you for the open-book exam.

    Can I reschedule or transfer to another batch?

    Yes. Flexi options let you reschedule or transfer to another batch on selected plans. Contact support to arrange this before your session begins.
