DAMA Data Quality is an official DAMA International certification exam, identified by exam code DQ-1220. Passing earns you the CDMP Specialist - Data Quality certification, classified at the Specialist level. It also connects with CDMP Associate, CDMP Master, CDMP Fellow, DG-1220 Data Governance, DMF-1220 Data Management Fundamentals, so it can serve as a stepping stone in a wider certification plan. In hiring, certificates work as a quick, quantitative standard, and this one tells employers your skills passed the vendor's own measurement.

DAMA Data Quality candidates answer 70-100 questions within 90 minutes. Efficiency under the clock is a trainable skill, not a talent: decide your per-question budget in advance, flag anything that threatens it, and keep moving. Running timed simulations in the Prep4away test engine until you finish with time to spare is the most reliable way to make exam day feel controlled rather than rushed.

The DAMA Data Quality exam requires 70% to pass, and official registration costs $311 USD (member), $411 USD (non-member). Since retakes bill the full $311 USD (member), $411 USD (non-member) again, the economic argument for thorough preparation writes itself. Let the Prep4away practice tests be your measuring stick: when your scores hold above the passing line across several consecutive sessions, the exam stops being a financial risk.

Recommended: DMF-1220 (Data Management Fundamentals) or equivalent knowledge; 2+ years of data management experience
