CISA and CISM exams now Twice a Year

20 May 2005 - The Information Systems Audit and Control Association (ISACA) has annouced that it will now be conducting tests for its Certified Information Systems Auditor (CISA) and Certified Information Security Manager (CISM) titles twice a year.  In previous years these ISACA exams were only available once a year in June. The exams will now be available in December.

The first December date will be Saturday, Dec. 10, 2005. ISACA has however noted that fewer locations and languages will be available for the December testing than the June tests. Availability will be based upon demand.

According to ISACA, "More than 20,000 candidates worldwide have registered for the June 2005 CISA and CISM exams. These unprecedented registration numbers demonstrate the vast demand and interest in the achievement of each credential. ISACA will add a second annual administration of each exam in order to accommodate more CISA and CISM candidates, beginning this December. 

The December exam will be offered in select locations and languages, based upon demand. For those candidates interested in gaining their CISA credential, the December 2005 exam will be the last exam covering the current CISA job practice areas. CISA exams offered in 2006 will cover new CISA job practice areas as defined in a recent job practice analysis".
