The CISM training course exam
The CISM exam is not included in this training course and delegates must book their Computer-Based Testing (CBT) exam session directly with ISACA. Exam registration is continuous, meaning, delegates can register any time, no restrictions. Delegates can schedule a testing appointment as early as 48 hours after payment of exam registration fees.

Upon registration, exam candidates have a twelve month eligibility period to take their exam. This means that from the date you register, you have 12 months (365 days) to take your exam. It is important to note that the exam registration fee must be paid in full before an exam candidate can schedule and take an exam.

Our experience shows that delegates have the highest chance of success if they sit the exam approximately two to four weeks after completing the training course. See our dedicated CISM page for more details.

The CISM exam is a 4-hour exam consisting of 150 multiple choice questions that cover the respective job practice areas created from the most recent job practice analysis.

Upon passing the CISM exam and successful certification application you will be awarded the ISACA Certified Information Security Manager (CISM) qualification.

For the certification application the following requirements must be met:
