    The COBIT 5 Assessor exam validates your ability to conduct structured process capability assessments using the COBIT 5 Process Assessment Model (PAM). The exam focuses on the COBIT 5 PAM, the 6 capability levels (0-5), the 9 process attributes (PA 1.1 through PA 5.2), the N/P/L/F rating scale, evidence-to-attribute mapping, and every stage of the assessment lifecycle (initiating, planning, data collection, validation, attribute rating, reporting). Through a combination of case-study questions (8 questions per paper with 10 marks per question), candidates are tested on their ability to apply COBIT 5 assessment principles in real-world enterprise IT assurance environments.
