“The future of IS auditing is
in the hands of its practitioners. Proven experience
and knowledge are essential, but it is also crucial
to meet the demands of the future, which necessitates
continuous education. Maintaining a CISA certification
helps provide its practitioners with the ability to
meet the demands of today and prepare for the future.”
