CMMC Organisational Foundations Training in Global

The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC), managed by The Cyber AB (formerly known as the CMMC Accreditation Body or the CMMC-AB), is a program through which an organization's cybersecurity program maturity is measured by their initial and ongoing compliance with applicable cybersecurity practices, as well as their integration of corresponding policies and plans into their overall business operations. Once rule-making has concluded and CMMC 2.0 has been implemented, all organizations providing products or services to the United States Department of Defense (DoD) must comply with the requirements of their applicable CMMC Level. This course provides a complete review of the key elements of this important program.

Important: This curriculum product is not considered CMMC-AB Approved Training Material (CATM). Although it contains the same information covered in the CCP training materials, this course is not intended as certification preparation and does not qualify students to sit for the CMMC CP certification exam.

No prequisites.

This course provides an immersive learning experience for business and technical professionals who need a thorough understanding of the CMMC program. It does this by taking the point of view of a CMMC Certified Professional. Students might consider taking this course to learn more about the overall CMMC program, how DoD contractors are assessed, and how to help their organizations prepare for a CMMC Assessment.

In this course, you will learn about the CMMC Model, framework, context, and application within the DoD, as well as the expectations and requirements imposed upon organizations that do business with the DoD.
