    Exam

    What is the format of the COBIT 5 Assessor exam?

    The exam is open book and objective, with 8 questions each worth 10 marks, for 80 marks in total, in 2 and a half hours (150 minutes). Only the COBIT 5 Assessor Guide: Using COBIT 5 and the COBIT Process Assessment Model are permitted. It is based on the COBIT 5 Assessor Exam Syllabus (2024 version).

    What is the passing score for the COBIT 5 Assessor exam?

    The pass mark is 50%, meaning you need 40 marks or more out of the 80 available. Questions require application and analysis, so focus on applying the PAM and rating scale accurately rather than memorising the guides.

    How and where do I sit the COBIT 5 Assessor exam?

    The exam is delivered by PeopleCert, either online proctored through OnVUE, available 24/7, or at a PeopleCert authorised test centre. This lets candidates in Taiwan sit the open-book assessor exam from home, the office or a centre.

    Which books can I use in the open-book exam?

    Only two references are permitted: the COBIT 5 Assessor Guide: Using COBIT 5 and the COBIT Process Assessment Model. No other materials are allowed, so efficient navigation of these documents is an important part of your preparation.

    What if I do not pass the exam on the first attempt?

    You can re-sit the assessor exam through PeopleCert, and our training focuses on open-book technique and scenario practice to build first-attempt readiness. Re-sit fees and policies are set by PeopleCert; confirm the current terms at the time of booking.

    Course Content

    What topics are covered in COBIT 5 Assessor training?

    The training covers the five syllabus areas: overview of COBIT 5 process assessment, the COBIT 5 Process Assessment Model, capability levels and attributes, assessment planning and execution, and evidence, rating and reporting. Foundation and Implementation knowledge is assumed throughout.

    What are the six COBIT 5 capability levels?

    Level 0 Incomplete, Level 1 Performed, Level 2 Managed, Level 3 Established, Level 4 Predictable and Level 5 Optimising. Each is assessed through the nine process attributes using a four-point scale: Not Achieved, Partially Achieved, Largely Achieved and Fully Achieved.

    What is the COBIT 5 Process Assessment Model (PAM)?

    The PAM is the ISO/IEC 15504-aligned model used to assess COBIT 5 process capability. It has two dimensions: the process dimension of 37 COBIT 5 processes and the capability dimension of six levels from 0 to 5. The course teaches you to apply both in a formal assessment.

    Do I need prior experience to follow the course?

    You should hold COBIT 5 Foundation, and Implementation is recommended, because the assessor level builds on both. Practical IT audit or governance experience helps, and the training reinforces the concepts with worked examples and realistic assessment scenarios.

    Is the courseware aligned to the current syllabus?

    Yes. The courseware is aligned to the COBIT 5 framework and the COBIT 5 Assessor Exam Syllabus (2024 version), and references the COBIT 5 Assessor Guide and the COBIT Process Assessment Model used in the open-book exam.
