Identity Governance and Administration (IGA) Corporate Training
Give every identity the right access, and nothing more: lifecycle automation, reviews, and SoD.
This instructor-led program teaches your team to run identity governance end to end: HR-driven joiner-mover-leaver workflows, role-based access policies, certification campaigns reviewers complete, and segregation-of-duties controls that satisfy auditors. Every module pairs concepts with guided labs in an IGA tenant, ending in a capstone where your team designs a complete IGA program.

Program Overview: What is Identity Governance and Administration (IGA)?
Identity Governance & Administration (IGA) is a hands-on training program for security and IAM teams responsible for governing who can access what. The program covers identity foundations, the joiner-mover-leaver lifecycle, access governance with RBAC and policies, certification campaigns, and segregation of duties. Participants work across six modules over 24 hours.
Sessions run as guided labs on realistic identity estates. Participants model joiner-mover-leaver workflows, build RBAC roles and policies, run certification campaigns, and enforce segregation of duties. Instructors with governance experience review each policy design, work through access review findings with learners, and coach on audit-ready documentation. The program ends with a capstone where each team builds an end-to-end IGA program.
Access governance fails quietly: stale entitlements pile up, leavers keep access for months, and segregation-of-duties conflicts hide in spreadsheets. Auditors find what the team never looked for. This program teaches teams to run governance as a continuous discipline, with certifications and controls that actually work.
The capstone produces a working IGA program: lifecycle workflows for joiners, movers, and leavers, RBAC models with policies, a certification campaign run, and SoD controls, all demonstrated on a sample estate. Teams go home with governance they can switch on, not a slide deck about governance.
Across six modules your team moves from identity foundations to a working program design. You will map identity types across the IAM, IGA, and PAM disciplines, build joiner-mover-leaver workflows in a lab IGA tenant, engineer RBAC roles and test least-privilege outcomes, run a mock certification campaign with real reviewer decisions, write SoD policies and detect toxic combinations, and finish with a capstone: a complete IGA program for a fictional enterprise, presented for instructor review. Everything is hands-on, and every technique transfers directly to your own identity estate.

Identity Governance and Administration (IGA) Course Topics and Program Outline
A tailored 24-hour, six-module workshop: one learning journey from identity foundations to a capstone IGA program build. Sessions pair concepts with labs in a realistic IGA tenant. Materials include workflow templates and policy samples.
Built by Edstellar with identity governance practitioners
Built by practitioners who run enterprise IGA programs in production, shaped around your platforms and compliance needs.
Skill checks baseline your team's identity lifecycle, access review, and SoD knowledge before training.
Instructor-led sessions cover identity models, lifecycle design, RBAC, and certification campaign mechanics.
Guided labs build provisioning workflows, run mock certifications, and detect SoD conflicts hands-on.
Your team designs a full IGA program in the capstone and presents it for instructor review.
From identity lifecycle design to a capstone IGA program build, every skill is practiced in guided labs.
