With the help of this course, you’ll come to understand the basic concepts behind outsourcing and governance—two essential facets of business management. Don’t leave this sort of thing to chance; get confident, pass your exam, and get ready for success!

COURSE OVERVIEW
The current trend in outsourcing IT services has changed the management context for providing the business with the IT services it needs, against best prices and conditions. Operational control is transferred into management of commercial relationships, contracts and coordination of the services from specialized suppliers.

Best practice shows that implementing and operating a Sourcing Governance Function will require staff awareness and understanding of the key principles and concepts of outsourcing and sourcing governance. For the customer-supplier relationship to be really successful such an awareness and understanding is needed in both the business organization and in the organization of the service provider(s).
