THE BIG PICTURE

About this course

This course supports candidates for globally recognised certifications such as CISA, CISM, CRISC, CGEIT and CDPSE, which are awarded by ISACA. It is suitable for professionals in audit, security, risk, privacy and IT governance who want structured study support across the core domains these certifications assess. Across three days you work through the common knowledge areas, map content to your chosen track, and complete hands-on tasks such as risk assessment, control mapping, audit scoping and privacy impact analysis. You will practise interpreting scenarios, tracing requirements to controls, and explaining decisions clearly under time pressure. Exams are computer‑based and delivered at test centres or online proctored via ISACA’s provider. Scoring uses a 200–800 scale with 450 required to pass. After passing an exam, candidates apply to ISACA and evidence professional experience to earn the certification. ISACA owns the certification scheme. MindClick provides training and exam preparation and is not an accredited or authorised partner.
