While we know that a lot of folks visit StorageTV for its insightful interviews with vendors and users, its business-savvy editorial commentary, and its funny bits, the great thing about StorageTV is that it is also a place where the founders, especially the Data Management Institute, can host its on-line training content.
DMI currently offers (or is in the process of developing) courseware in four subject areas:
- Data Management -- DMI's Certified Data Management Professional (CDMP) training and certification course has been delivered throughout the world and provides trainees with insights and skills they can use to wrangle the storage junk drawer into some semblance of order.
- Data Protection and Business Continuity -- DMI's Certified Data Protection Specialist (CDPS) training and certification course has been delivered worldwide through partnerships with folks like TechTarget, Coreventus, ISIT, Vantagem+, and Terrapinn to help cultivate a knowledge of techniques and technologies that can help ensure business recovery from any disaster, natural or man-made, that interrupts business operations.
- Data Security -- DMI premiered a training program last year, the Certified Data Security Specialist (CDSS) course, that drilled down into the content rich domain of information security to pull out the concepts, techniques and architecture relevant to the new preoccupation with securing data at rest and in flight.
- Data Archiving -- SNIA made archive out to be rocket science, which it isn't. So, DMI, through its ArchiveMgt.org site, is building a course around best practices, technologies and techniques for building a sustainable archive strategy that will be released in 2009.

The content of these programs can be sourced through the websites of the Data Management Institute, including DMI's own e-train portal, DRplanning.org, and ArchiveMgt.org. On this site, we will post short video tutorials, in some cases drawn from DMI training, that you can view in our Tips and Tricks section. Stand by for this content, which is being produced today.
