Fall 2008 CISA Review Course:
The Kansas City ISACA Chapter is holding a CISA Review Course for the
December 2008 CISA Exam. The
course will be based on ISACA's CISA Review Manual, and
we recommend that CISA candidates purchase the CISA Review Manual
from ISACA International's online bookstore (the web link for the manual
is: http://www.isaca.org/Template.cfm?Section=Browse_By_Category&Template=/Ecommerce/ProductDisplay.cfm&Productid=821
).
The sessions will be held on
the Webster University – Kansas City campus (near I-435 and Holmes) and
as well as being presented remotely at the same time in a webinar-type
format over the Internet along with a separate audio bridge. Course
materials provided include a hand-out of the review presentation slides
and practice quizzes with answers. Again,
we recommend the purchase of the 2008 CISA Review Manual separately since
it is not included with our course.
Additionally, the session
audio will be recorded and available subsequently for download by review
participants. Along with the
handouts, this would allow for self-paced study and/or review of the
individual lecture presentations.
The 9-week course will meet on
Wednesday nights from
6:00 PM
to
8:30 PM
Central time from October 1st
through December 3rd (skipping the week of Thanksgiving,
November 26th). The
registration fee for this course is $100 for Kansas City ISACA and other
regional cooperative chapters’ members (currently
Des Moines
,
Oklahoma
City and
Minnesota
) and $125 for all others. Additionally,
there is a mailing fee of $10 for the course materials for those not
attending locally.

Study Group Registration Form). The

CGEIT Certification (Certified in the Governance of Enterprise
IT):
ISACA's new IT Governance certification is intended to recognize a wide
range of professionals for their knowledge and application of IT
governance principles and practices. It is designed for professionals who
have management, advisory, or assurance responsibilities as defined by a
"job practice" consisting of IT governance related tasks and
knowledge. Earning this designation will enable professionals to respond
to the growing business demand for a comprehensive IT governance program
that defines responsibility and accountability across the entire
enterprise. For further information, please visit the Official ISACA
