Certified Information Systems Auditor (CISA)                                          >>Home

Since 1978, the Certified Information Systems Auditor (CISA) program, sponsored by the Information Systems Audit and Control Association (ISACA), has been the globally accepted standard of achievement among information systems audit, control assurance and security professionals.

With the growing demand for professionals possessing IS Audit and Control skills, CISA has become the certificate program preferred by individuals and organizations around the world. The CISA designation assures employers that their staffs have met the current educational and experience criteria necessary for successful on-the-job performance.

We in Rhythex Consulting have packaged, through many years of research and experience, a series of preparatory lectures that would enable participants pass the CISA exam at first attempt.
 
Our Facilitators/Instructors are practicing Information Systems Auditors and Security professionals with CISA, CISM, CGEIT and CISSP certifications. Their practical IS Audit experience would not only help participants in passing the exam but also help in knowing what to do to function effectively as an IS Auditor.
