    COBIT 5 Assessor is the highest-level credential in the COBIT 5 scheme. It validates your ability to plan, conduct, rate and report formal process capability assessments using the COBIT 5 Process Assessment Model (PAM), which is aligned to ISO/IEC 15504. The exam is delivered by PeopleCert.

    Who should take COBIT 5 Assessor training in Guyana?

    What are the prerequisites for COBIT 5 Assessor?

    COBIT 5 Foundation certification is required before you can sit the Assessor exam. COBIT 5 Implementation is strongly recommended, as the Assessor level assumes both Foundation and Implementation knowledge. You can confirm current prerequisites when you enrol.

    Is the COBIT 5 Assessor certification worth it?

    Yes, if you work in or want to move into IT governance assessment. It is the advanced specialist level of the COBIT 5 scheme, and certified assessors are scarce in Guyana's growing market, which supports senior IT audit and governance roles. Talk to a learning advisor to plan your path.

    Pricing

    How much does COBIT 5 Assessor training cost in Guyana?

    Training fees vary by format, whether live virtual, corporate or one-to-one, and by group size, so pricing is available on request. Request a quote and a learning advisor will share the current options and any group rates that apply to you.

    What is included in the course fee?

    The fee typically includes aligned courseware, scenario-based case studies, mock exams and practice questions, and dedicated learner support. Exam voucher inclusion varies by package, so confirm what is bundled when you enrol.

    Is the PeopleCert exam fee included in the training price?

    Exam fee inclusion depends on the package you choose. PeopleCert exam pricing varies by region and delivery channel, so we confirm whether the voucher is bundled or purchased separately before you enrol. Ask an advisor for the current details.

    Do you offer corporate or group discounts?

    Yes. We offer corporate group training with customised schedules and volume-based pricing for audit, risk and governance teams. Contact us for a tailored quote for your organisation in Guyana.

    What payment options are available?

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

    Exam

    What is the format of the COBIT 5 Assessor exam?

    It is an open-book, objective-testing examination based on the COBIT 5 Assessor Exam Syllabus (2024 version) and the COBIT 5 PAM. Only the COBIT 5 Assessor Guide: Using COBIT 5 and the COBIT Process Assessment Model are permitted during the exam.

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

    The exam has 8 questions, each worth 10 marks, for a total of 80 marks. You have 2 and a half hours, or 150 minutes, to complete it. All 8 questions are scored, so every question counts toward your result.

    What is the passing score for the COBIT 5 Assessor exam?

    The pass mark is 50 per cent. You need 40 marks or more out of the 80 available to pass. Because the questions require specialist analysis, broad mastery of the PAM and rating rules matters more than memorising single facts.

    What materials can I use in the open-book exam?

    Only two references are permitted: the COBIT 5 Assessor Guide: Using COBIT 5 and the COBIT Process Assessment Model. No other materials are allowed, so efficient navigation of both documents is a key exam skill the training builds.

    How and where do I take the exam?

    The exam is delivered by PeopleCert, either through OnVUE online proctoring, available around the clock from home or office, or at a PeopleCert authorised test centre. You choose whichever suits you when you book.

    What happens if I do not pass on the first attempt?

    You can resit the exam under PeopleCert's re-sit policy, and our trainers provide guidance and practice to help you clear it. We confirm the current re-sit terms and any fees when you register. Ask an advisor for details.

    Course Content

    What topics does the COBIT 5 Assessor course cover?

    The course covers the five syllabus areas: overview of COBIT 5 process assessment, the COBIT 5 PAM, capability levels and attributes, assessment planning and execution, and evidence, rating and reporting, all at application and analysis level.

    What will I learn about the PAM and capability levels?

    You learn the two-dimensional PAM, the six capability levels from Level 0 Incomplete to Level 5 Optimising, the nine process attributes, and the four-point rating scale. You practise applying them to realistic assessment scenarios with supporting evidence.

    Is the courseware aligned to the latest syllabus?

    Yes. The courseware is aligned to the COBIT 5 Assessor Exam Syllabus (2024 version) and the COBIT 5 Process Assessment Model, so what you study matches what the current PeopleCert exam assesses.

    Are mock exams and practice questions included?

    Yes. The programme includes scenario-based practice questions and mock exams aligned to the 8-question, open-book format, helping you identify weak areas and build confidence before you sit the exam.

    Do I need prior COBIT knowledge before this course?

    Yes. COBIT 5 Foundation knowledge is assumed, and Implementation knowledge is recommended, as neither is retaught at Assessor level. The training builds on that base to develop specialist assessment and rating skills.

    Enrollment

    How do I enrol in the COBIT 5 Assessor course?

    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 if you have questions.

    What training formats are available in Guyana?

    What is the refund or cancellation policy?
