Ensure your organisation meets international best practice in information governance with this comprehensive self-assessment tool, aligned to ISO 16175 standards. Designed for information managers, compliance leads, and data governance professionals, this structured programme delivers practical insights to strengthen your information asset management framework and drive long-term compliance, efficiency, and digital continuity.
Through three targeted modules, you’ll gain the clarity and confidence to assess, design, and govern critical information assets across complex environments:
- Foundations of Information Asset Management: Accurately define and classify information assets in line with ISO 16175 criteria. Map data flows to functional requirements for capture, retention, and disposal, while identifying governance gaps in ownership, stewardship, and accountability. Evaluate alignment with regulatory obligations and digital continuity mandates to reduce compliance risk.
- Metadata Frameworks for Long-Term Usability: Implement robust metadata strategies that support data integrity across systems and lifecycles. Translate ISO 16175 Part 2 requirements into actionable controls, balance completeness with operational efficiency, and embed validation rules to prevent metadata drift. Integrate metadata governance into SDLC and legacy migration processes for sustainable outcomes.
- Information Governance & Compliance Architecture: Build a scalable governance model that embeds ISO 16175 controls within broader privacy, security, and compliance frameworks. Strengthen accountability, define retention triggers based on business events, and close critical gaps in records management and data classification.
Gain a clear roadmap to improve data transparency, support audit readiness, and future-proof your information architecture. Whether preparing for certification, managing regulatory scrutiny, or leading internal transformation, this self-assessment delivers actionable insights you can apply immediately.
