What is the Implementation-Focused Legacy Modernization course about?
Compliance officers are increasingly asked to validate technology modernization efforts, yet most training focuses on policy, not execution. This leaves practitioners unprepared to guide technical teams, assess migration risks, or document controls in evolving environments. The gap between compliance oversight and implementation reality creates inefficiencies, rework, and audit exposure.
