Certified Data Management Professional

DAMA International · advanced · 90 minutes

Update in progressDAMA International now publishes this exam as CDMP Data Management Fundamentals, fourteen topics summing to exactly 100%; our bank was written for CDMP as two broad domains with the exam-version excuse, checked on 21 September 2026. The questions still teach the subject, but the split per domain has moved.

The vendor-neutral data management credential, built on the DMBOK and cited across governance roles: the eleven knowledge areas with governance at the centre, the distinction between deciding and executing, architecture against modelling and the three model levels, then quality as fitness for purpose fixed at source, reference against master data with matching and survivorship, the three kinds of metadata and what lineage answers, integration chosen by latency, and the security, privacy and ethics a programme is judged on.
