Certified Software Asset Manager
Course Description
The CSAM with a difference.
There are many CSAM certifications available across the globe. Some of us in ITAM India have taken these courses and passed the certification exams. But we have found that most of them have not really been useful in the real world.
Whether we like it or not, SAM is not about theory. It is about practical application of practices that helps in:
- Maintaining software license compliance
- Providing visibility of licenses deployed
- Keeping a proper record of entitlements
- Optimizing costs
- Bein audit ready
- Preventing software piracy
- Creatin policies and processes to ensure all of the above.
We believe that takin a course and obtainin a certification should help in your everyday job and also enable you to et better jobs.
That’s why we have created this CSAM course differently.

Featured Review
Indeed this a CSAM course with a difference. The course has helped me immensely in my day to day work and has also enabled me to make valuable contributions to my company. My understanding of license compliance, importance of documentation and the correct way of managing license audits has been enhanced by this course.
