CISA and CAP

It's recommended that I go for the CAP for a job that I just started. Is there any carryover between CISA and CAP? After searching for study materials, the CISA came up, and I'm wondering if I could use that material to prep for the CAP.

I was about to ask what the heck the CAP was but then Googled it. Lo and behold a CISSP holder for a decade, and an active ISC2 member, and I just learned of the cap thanks to Kiyori. Goes to show ISC2's latest marketing budget must be hurting....

otherwise, sorry Kiyori. I know nothing about the CAP. I'm even going out on a limb and assuming you're talking about the ISC2 CAP and not some other random auditing cap

Yes, the (ISC)2 CAP and the ISACA CISA.

CISA will help on things like best practice and auditing processes...but CAP is solely based on NIST and compliance to the framework. Basically there isn't a ton of overlap...if you are evaluating systems and documentation it could be helpful but if you are writing up the documentation...they are different aspects.
