Exam Cram 2 books help you understand and appreciate the subjects and materials you need to pass ISACA certification exams. Exam Cram 2 books are aimed strictly at test preparation and review. They do not teach you everything you need to know about a topic. Instead, we present and dissect the questions and problems we've found that you're likely to encounter on a test. We've worked to bring together as much information as possible about ISACA certification exams.

Nevertheless, to completely prepare yourself for any ISACA test, we recommend that you begin by taking the Self-Assessment that is included in this book, immediately following this introduction. The Self-Assessment will help you evaluate your knowledge base against the requirements for an ISACA Certified Information Systems Auditor under both ideal and real circumstances.

Based on what you learn from the Self-Assessment, you might decide to begin your studies with some classroom training, some practice with systems auditing, or some background reading. On the other hand, you might decide to read one of the many study guides available from ISACA or third-party vendors on certain topics, including the award-winning certification preparation series from Que Publishing. We also recommend that you supplement your study program with visits to www.examcram2.com to receive additional practice questions, get advice, and track the CISA program.
