All,
I have just received this from the ISACA London Chapter...
We would like to inform you of the changes to
the CISM certification program. This will be effective in 2017, a new CISM job practice will be in place and the CISM exam will now contain
150 questions.
The CISM job practice will be restructured to reflect the latest responsibilities of information security management professionals:
- Domain 1 - Information Security Governance
- Domain 2 - Information Risk Management
- Domain 3 - Information Security Program Development and Management
- Domain 4 - Information Security Incident Management
The updated CISM job practice reflects the expertise of CISM Practice Analysis Task Force members and independent subject matter expert reviewers. A validation survey was distributed to 5,000 CISMs worldwide, with more than 1,400 information security professionals responding and validating the results.
This updated CISM job practice will be tested at globally located Computer-Based Testing (CBT) centres starting in 2017. ISACA is excited that not only the CISM exam, but also the CISA, CRISC and CGEIT exams will be administered via CBT because of the value it provides to delegates, including a quicker turnaround time for exam results.
The first testing window is scheduled for 1 May through 30 June, 2017. Registrations for the first testing window will open on 15 November 2016.
We wanted to communicate these changes to all future exam candidates within our chapter. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to visit the
ISACA FAQ page or contact us at
admin@isaca-london.org and we can channel them to the correct member of the board.
