Axis C · By Goal

What you're actually here to achieve.

"Get governance certified fast"

COBIT 5 Foundation earns the framework's entry credential in two days, with no prerequisites.

"Run a governance implementation"

The Implementation track certifies you to apply COBIT's lifecycle approach to a live governance initiative, not just describe it.

"Assess process capability"

The Assessor track qualifies you to evaluate IT processes against the COBIT capability model, the skill audits and regulators keep asking for.

"Build governance across my org"

The combined COBIT 5 Certification program and corporate cohorts take teams from framework literacy to implementation and assessment capability in one sequenced program.

Not sure which path is yours?

A 15-minute call with a learning advisor is the quickest way to match your role, level and goal to the right certification.

FoundationMost popular

Understand the Framework

Best for anyone who works within, reports into, or is newly accountable for a governed IT environment.

MAPS TO

COBIT 5 Foundation

COBIT is the common language of IT governance, the framework auditors reference, regulators recognize, and boards expect leadership to speak. Foundation covers the five principles, seven enablers, and process model, giving managers, analysts, and compliance staff the literacy every later step depends on.

RECOMMENDED CERTIFICATIONS

COBIT 5 Foundation

The framework's principles, enablers, and process model, with the entry-level exam.

ApplicationIntermediate

Implement Governance

Best for professionals tasked with standing up or improving governance in a real organization.

MAPS TO

COBIT 5 Implementation

Knowing the framework and changing an organization with it are different skills. Implementation certifies the second: applying COBIT's seven-phase lifecycle, identifying pain points and trigger events, and managing the program as organizational change rather than a documentation exercise.

RECOMMENDED CERTIFICATIONS

COBIT 5 Implementation

Applying the COBIT lifecycle to live governance initiatives. Requires Foundation.

View course

EvaluationAdvanced

Assess and Audit Capability

Best for auditors, assessors, and process owners who must measure capability with evidence, not opinion.

MAPS TO

COBIT 5 Assessor

Regulators and boards increasingly want capability demonstrated, not asserted. The Assessor track qualifies professionals to run evidence-based process capability assessments against the COBIT model — the discipline behind credible internal audits, vendor evaluations, and regulatory responses.

RECOMMENDED CERTIFICATIONS

COBIT 5 Assessor

Evidence-based process capability assessment against the COBIT model. Requires Foundation.

View course

Comprehensive

Cover the Framework End to End

Best for governance teams and consultants who need the complete COBIT skill set in one program.

For teams building a governance function from scratch, or consultants who must advise across the whole lifecycle, the combined program sequences Foundation knowledge with implementation and assessment capability, delivered as one coherent track rather than three separate bookings.

Built for L&D Leaders, IT Governance Heads, and Assurance ExecutivesBuilt for L&D Leaders, IT Governance Heads, and Procurement Teams

When IT investment fails to deliver value, the root cause is rarely effort. It is usually inconsistent governance: technology decisions made without clear ownership, risk assessed differently in every team, and controls that satisfy neither the board nor the auditor. Invensis Learning, an accredited IT governance certification training company, works with L&D leaders, governance heads, and assurance executives in New Zealand to convert those gaps into a structured training programme, whether that means grounding a cohort in COBIT 5 Foundation, building implementation capability, or developing assessors, so teams share one framework, one vocabulary, and measurable results.

Six Business Problems IT Governance Training Solves

Every organisation running technology encounters the same costly problems: IT spend disconnected from strategy, inconsistent controls, recurring audit findings, and governance that never leaves the page. Below, you can see how each challenge is solved through targeted certification training, and the outcomes you can measure the investment against. Invensis Learning has delivered these programmes to 4,500+ enterprise clients, helping teams turn recurring governance problems into consistent, trackable results.

Common Business Problem	Business Impact If Unaddressed	Recommended Training	Business Outcome
IT investment is not clearly linked to business strategy or value.	Technology spend grows without demonstrable business benefit Competing IT priorities pull resources in different directions Boards lose confidence that IT decisions serve strategy	COBIT 5 Foundation COBIT 5	IT investment aligned to enterprise goals Clear governance objectives tied to business outcomes Decision rights and accountability defined for IT Value from technology tracked and reported KPI: IT VALUE DELIVERED, STRATEGY ALIGNMENT
Every team governs IT its own way, with no shared framework.	Inconsistent controls make enterprise risk hard to read Governance knowledge stays siloed with individuals Onboarding and audit preparation take far longer than they should	COBIT 5 Foundation	A single, repeatable governance framework Common objectives, roles, and control language across teams Comparable governance reporting enterprise-wide Faster onboarding and smoother audits KPI: FRAMEWORK ADOPTION, CONTROL CONSISTENCY
Audit and compliance findings keep recurring against NZISM and regulatory expectations.	Repeat findings signal weak control ownership to regulators Remediation is reactive and costly Assurance over third parties and cloud is hard to evidence	COBIT 5 Assessor	Controls that stand up to assessment Process capability evaluated against an objective scale Gaps identified and prioritised before external audit Evidence-based assurance for boards and regulators KPI: AUDIT FINDINGS, CAPABILITY LEVEL
Governance exists on paper but is never implemented in practice.	Policies are written but not embedded in daily work Improvement initiatives stall without a clear roadmap Investment in governance is written off as overhead	COBIT 5 Implementation	Governance that operates, not just documents A tailored implementation roadmap based on design factors Change managed through defined implementation phases Governance embedded and sustained past go-live KPI: IMPLEMENTATION PROGRESS, ADOPTION RATE
IT risk is unmanaged, and no one owns the decisions.	Risks surface late as incidents rather than early as decisions Accountability for controls is unclear across the organisation Resilience gaps are exposed only after an event	COBIT 5 Foundation	IT risk governed and owned Risk considered within a structured governance system Clear ownership of controls and mitigating actions Fewer surprises reaching the board and audit committee KPI: RISK EXPOSURE, CONTROL OWNERSHIP
Leaders cannot measure how mature or effective their IT governance really is.	Improvement effort is spent on the wrong areas Progress cannot be evidenced to the board or regulators Benchmarking against good practice is impossible	COBIT 5 Assessor	Governance maturity you can measure Objective capability assessments across key processes A clear baseline and target for improvement Investment focused where it moves maturity most KPI: PROCESS CAPABILITY, MATURITY UPLIFT
