About this simulator
This is a free CDMP practice drill: ten questions, drawn at random from a bank of one hundred, written against the knowledge areas of the DAMA-DMBOK2 — the body of knowledge the CDMP Data Management Fundamentals exam is built on. Every question names the chapter it comes from, so a wrong answer tells you what to read rather than only that you were wrong.
There is very little free practice material for the CDMP, which is the reason this exists. The real Data Management Fundamentals exam is 100 multiple-choice questions in 90 minutes, and it is scored in three bands: 60% earns the Associate credential, 70% Practitioner and 80% Master (the upper two also require two specialist exams). The four result tiers here use the same thresholds, so a score means the same thing it would mean on exam day.
The questions and answer options are in English on all three language versions of this page, on purpose. The CDMP is sat in English only, and the exam's difficulty is largely vocabulary: drilling a translated term teaches you a word you will not be shown. Everything around the questions — instructions, results, guidance — is translated.
What you practice
- Knowledge-area boundaries — whether a statement belongs to Metadata Management or Reference & Master Data, to Data Architecture or Data Modeling.
- DMBOK vocabulary — the exam's precise use of terms like system of record, conformed dimension, canonical model and data lineage.
- Governance structure — the roles, bodies and operating models Chapter 3 defines, and how they differ from stewardship in practice.
- Reading questions at pace — the real exam allows about 54 seconds a question; the timer here runs for the same reason.
- Finding your weak chapters — the coverage card after each run lists the areas the draw touched and how you scored in each.
Questions about this simulator
What is the CDMP?
The Certified Data Management Professional credential, awarded by DAMA International. Every level starts from the same Data Management Fundamentals exam — 100 multiple-choice questions in 90 minutes, drawn from the knowledge areas of the DAMA-DMBOK2 — and the score sets the level: 60% for Associate, 70% for Practitioner, 80% for Master. Practitioner and Master also require two specialist exams.
Are these the real exam questions?
No. Nobody who has sat the exam is permitted to share its questions, and these are not them. The hundred questions in this bank were written against the published DMBOK2 chapter structure to drill the same distinctions the exam tests, and each one names the chapter and section you can go and read. Treat the score as a readiness signal, not a prediction.
Why are the questions in English on the Spanish and Portuguese pages?
Because the exam is. DAMA International offers the Data Management Fundamentals exam in English only, so drilling the vocabulary in translation would train the wrong recall — you would learn the concept under a name the exam will never use. Everything around the questions is translated; the questions and the answer options are not.
Is it free?
Yes. There is no account and no email capture. The ten questions are scored entirely in your browser; the only thing that leaves it is the leaderboard entry, and only if you press Publish — the display name you typed, your final score and how long you took then appear on the same global board every other player sees.
