In our information-dependent world, and with the exponential growth of
the volume, types and uses of data, effective and strategic data
management is critical for any organization.
DCAM (the Data Management Capability Assessment Model)

management and analytics by
EDM Council Members. Data professionals who are certified in DCAM
are recognized as qualified experts in establishing, enabling and
sustaining mature data management and analytics programs to ensure their
firms’ successful use of one of their most valuable assets – their
