The IT Asset Management (ITAM) Foundation is the essential entry-level certification for anyone involved in managing IT assets across their organisation. Over two days, this course introduces the concept, practice, and implementation of IT Asset Management – covering the full asset lifecycle from procurement through to retirement and disposal.
IT Asset Management is no longer purely an IT function. This course has been specifically designed with non-IT personnel in mind, recognising that effective ITAM requires collaboration across finance, procurement, legal, operations, and IT.
The course covers the four key ITAM disciplines – Software Asset Management (SAM), Hardware Asset Management (HAM), Service Asset and Configuration Management (SEAM), and Physical Infrastructure and Network Asset Management (PINAM) – and explains how they interrelate. It also introduces the ISO methodology and ITSM best practice as foundations for a sustainable ITAM approach.

There are no formal prerequisites. The course has been specifically designed to be accessible to non-IT personnel, as well as those with an IT background.

Once upon a time, in a bustling city where glass skyscrapers kissed the sky and the hum of technology filled the air, there was a small park. This park was an oasis of greenery amidst the urban sprawl, home to a majestic oak tree that stood tall and proud. This oak had witnessed the city grow and evolve over many decades, and it had become a symbol of strength, wisdom, and resilience for the locals.
Across the street from this park, a group of visionary entrepreneurs was in the process of establishing a new consultancy firm. They wanted a name that would not only represent their commitment to providing insightful and robust solutions but also reflect their deep roots in the community and their dedication to helping businesses grow and flourish.
One crisp autumn morning, as the founders met to brainstorm names, a ray of sunlight broke through the clouds and illuminated the old oak tree in the park. Its leaves shimmered with a golden glow, casting a warm, inviting light. Inspired by this radiant sight, one of the founders suggested the name “BrightOak.” The name embodied the brilliance of innovative ideas and the steadfast strength of the mighty oak, a perfect metaphor for their consultancy.
And so, BrightOak Consultancy was born, with a mission to illuminate the path to success for businesses of all sizes, drawing on their wisdom and experience to help clients thrive in an ever-changing world. The majestic oak continues to stand as a reminder of their origins and their commitment to excellence.
