CDMP Certification Opportunity

Certified Data Management Professional (CDMP) Exams

DAMA-MN has been approved to host a Pay-If-You-Pass CDMP Fundamentals and Speciality exams during DAMA Days 2026. This allows eligible participants to sit for the exam without upfront exam payment and pay only if they pass.

The CDMP Fundamentals exam requires a passing score of 60%. Over the last two DAMA-MN CDMP study groups, more than 95% of participating exam candidates passed, making this a strong opportunity to prepare with the community and pursue certification with reduced financial risk.

Participants interested in the onsite exam are encouraged to join the Fall 2026 CDMP Study Group for structured preparation, peer support, and guidance on exam readiness.
