Data Governance Act Trained Professional (DatGovActTP) program
Overview
After the Data Governance Act, more data are available to businesses and citizens. The economic and social potential of this development is enormous. It enables new products and services based on novel technologies, makes production more efficient, and provides tools for combatting challenges in the society. In the area of health, for example, data can contribute to providing better healthcare, improving personalised treatments, and helping cure rare or chronic diseases. It is also a powerful engine for innovation and new jobs, and a critical resource for start-ups and SMEs.
The Data Governance Act regulates the re-use of data, boosts data sharing, and encourages the sharing of data for altruistic purposes. Both personal and non-personal data are in scope of the DGA, and wherever personal data is concerned, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) also applies.
Before the DGA, data sharing in the EU was limited due to a number of obstacles, including low trust in data sharing, issues related to the re-use of public sector data and data collected for the common good, as well as technical obstacles.
The DGA is a major opportunity and a major challenge for firms and organisations. The marketplace is clearly demanding qualified professionals that have the knowledge and skills needed to comply with this regulation.
Objectives
The program has been designed to provide with the skills needed to understand and support compliance with the Data Governance Act.
It also provides with the skills needed to pass the Data Governance Act Trained Professional (DatGovActTP) exam, and to receive the Certificate of Completion, that provides independent evidence that you have a quantifiable understanding of the subject matter.

- EU companies and organizations that have to comply with the Data Governance Act,
- non-EU companies and organizations that have operations in EU Member States or provide services to EU citizens, and have to comply with the Data Governance Act.

2. Are your training and certification programs vendor neutral?
Yes. We do not promote any products or services, and we are 100% independent.
3. I want to learn more about the exam.
You can take the exam online from your home or office, in all countries.
It is an open book exam. Risk and compliance management is something you must understand and learn, not memorize. You must acquire knowledge and skills, not commit something to memory.
You will be given 90 minutes to complete a 35-question exam. You must score 70% or higher.
The exam contains only questions that have been clearly answered in the official presentations.
All exam questions are multiple-choice, composed of two parts:
a. A stem (a question asked, or an incomplete statement to be completed).
b. Four possible responses.
In multiple-choice questions, you must not look for a correct answer, you must look for the best answer. Cross out all the answers you know are incorrect, then focus on the remaining ones. Which is the best answer? With this approach, you save time, and you greatly increase the likelihood of selecting the correct answer.
TIME LIMIT - This exam has a 90-minute time limit. You must complete this exam within this time limit, otherwise the result will be marked as an unsuccessful attempt.
BACK BUTTON - When taking this exam you are NOT permitted to move backwards to review/change prior answers. Your browser back button will refresh the current page instead of moving backward.
RESTART/RESUME – You CANNOT stop and then resume the exam. If you stop taking this exam by closing your browser, your answers will be lost, and the result will be marked as an unsuccessful attempt.
SKIP - You CANNOT skip answering questions while taking this exam. You must answer all the questions in the order the questions are presented.
We do not send sample questions or past exams. If you study the presentations, you can score 100%.
When you are ready to take the exam, you must follow the steps described at "Question h. I am ready for the exam. What must I do?", at:
4. How comprehensive are the presentations? Are they just bullet points?
The presentations are not bullet points. They are effective and appropriate to study online or offline.
5. Do I need to buy books to pass the exam?
No. If you study the presentations, you can pass the exam. All the exam questions are clearly answered in the presentations. If you fail the first time, you must study more. Print the presentations and use Post-it to attach notes, to know where to find the answer to a question.
6. Is it an open book exam? Why?
Yes, it is an open book exam. Risk and compliance management is something you must understand and learn, not memorize. You must acquire knowledge and skills, not commit something to memory.
7. Do I have to take the exam soon after receiving the presentations?
No. You can take the exam any time. Your account never expires.
8. I want to receive another printed and stamped certificate (I lost the one sent, or for other reasons). Can you send me another one?
Every time we send certificates via registered mail with tracking number, we also send all tracking numbers via email. Please track your certificate and ensure you or somebody else can receive it. If there is any problem in the process, please let us know. If we do not receive an email up to 90 days after the day we sent the tracking numbers, indicating that your certificate was not delivered, we will mark the certificate as delivered.
The cost of each additional printed and stamped certificate is 65 USD. It includes the administration, processing and posting via registered mail with tracking number (not courier). Certificates are usually dispatched every 10 weeks. We accept payment with cards, QR, and PayPal.
9. Why should I purchase this program?
Firms and organizations hire and promote “fit and proper” professionals who can provide evidence that they are qualified. Employers need assurance that employees have the knowledge and skills needed to mitigate risks and accept responsibility. Supervisors and auditors ask for independent evidence that the process owners are qualified, and that the controls can operate as designed, because the persons responsible for these controls have the necessary knowledge and experience.
There are many new Directives and Regulations in the EU, and our target audience is overwhelmed and has little time to spare. Cyber Risk GmbH has developed a program that can assist them in understanding the new requirements, and in providing evidence that they are qualified, as they must pass an exam to receive their certificate of completion.
The all-inclusive cost of our distance learning programs is very low. There is no additional cost for each program, now or in the future, for any reason.
There are 3 exam attempts per year that are included in the cost of each program, so you do not have to spend money again if you fail.
You have a 100 USD discount for your second and each additional program from Cyber Risk GmbH (the all-inclusive cost is 197 USD).
