The CGEIT qualification

The CGEIT (Certified in the Governance of Enterprise IT) qualification, awarded by ISACA®, demonstrates that holders have the expert knowledge and experience necessary to support the governance of enterprise IT. This ensures that an organisation’s IT is governed from the top, and therefore aligned with business needs and goals.

The certification was designed for professionals with significant management experience relating to GEIT and is recognised across the world as one of the information security industry’s premier qualifications.

Continuing Professional Education

In addition, a minimum of 120 contact hours are required during a fixed three-year period. Failing to comply with these requirements will result in your CGEIT designation being revoked.
