Getting started with leading frameworks including PRINCE2 and SABSA is a great way to add strong qualifications to your CV, not to mention taking your skills to the next level.

While these courses may sound great, it can sometimes be difficult to take part – especially when they take place across several days and you're not sure which course to start with.

Below, we'll help you out by taking a look at where you can get started with several leading frameworks, and what the courses actually involve.

COBIT 5

If the proper governance and management of IT systems is what you're after, then COBIT 5 is certainly the most appropriate option. This framework leverages proven practices and tools and drive IT innovation – a must for many in the IT sector.

COBIT 5 Foundation is the best course to gain an understanding of how this framework can actually be put to use, and it takes place over a period of three days.

Courses are being held in Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra and Adelaide from March through to June at the beginning of this year – with more on the way.

ITIL

IT service management is critical for modern businesses, as it means the technologies are actually being used to realise business change and transformation.

Like COBIT 5, the ITIL Foundation course is perfect to beginners as it takes them through the basics of the framework. What's more, they'll learn all of the key features that underpin ITIL and gain full preparation for the Foundation Certificate exam.

Ready to get started? Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra, Brisbane and Perth are hosting multiple course dates early this year, and Adelaide is running a course in March.

Architecting Secure Cloud

The cloud has become so much more than a buzzword over the past few years, and it's a now a tool with real potential to change how a business operates at a fundamental level. For example, employees can work together on the same document simultaneously even if they're in different parts of the country.

However, with cloud growth has also come a need for security, and that's where this framework comes into play. It's designed to provide course participants with the knowledge needed to architect secure cloud technologies.

This course is based on SABSA, a leading security architecture framework, and delivers an understanding of how to enable cloud computing at the necessary level of security.

To get started, we've got courses coming up in Sydney, Melbourne and Canberra in March – perfect timing to ensure cloud deployments stay secure for the remainder of the year.

PRINCE2

Projects come in all shapes and sizes in a business, from small conferences held within the office to a major event like an industry trade show. Transitions can even be classed as projects, such as when a department needs to move to a new computer system.

PRINCE2 one of the most powerful frameworks for project management, and it should certainly be the first point of call for companies and individuals. This is a framework that can be utilised time and again across various different business projects.

We have PRINCE2 Foundation and Practitioner courses coming up in Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra, Brisbane, Perth and Adelaide from February through June this year, with more to come later.

Get in touch with ALC Training to find out more about our range of courses, and where you can get started with a course in Australia.

Both businesses and individuals cannot afford to overlook the value offered by leading frameworks, especially over the long term. These are methods that can be deployed across a range of different projects, long after the training has been completed.
