Title: anyone on here CISSP or CISM certified?
Post by: Gaffers on 25 August 2011, 20:58:36

I am considering a career change for various reasons which I won't go into here (maybe over a beer or 12 at Newent)

Part of my current duties for he past 4 years have concerned implementing IT and Information Security protocols and procedures according to MOD principles and rules.  I have looked into jobs in this market and they all want either of the certifications mentioned above.  I can get the training and exam funded by my Enhanced Learning Credits but I am not 100% sure about the required levels of knowledge prior to undertaking the certification process.  I meet the qualifying criteria but I was wondering if anyone else on here has gone through it to give me a steer as to what to expect.
