Does anybody know anything about this certification? Does it hold any water if you are looking to get into the I.T. Compliance field?
Thanks
Thanks

I just did a quick google search and saw some websites offering training on the exam
so there is no one standard exam? -
OptionsJDMurray Admin Posts: 13,031 AdminThere is no Federal certification for SOX auditors. The ISO/IEC 27000-series of security standards are used quite a bit for SOX, so use that when referencing auditing certifications. The CISA cert from ISACA and the CIA from the IIA are probably the best known certs for auditors.

I think the only way you'll see a slowing of employment in the auditing fields is if Congress decides to repeal all of those laws it passed that bear the names of Congressmen.
