While CISSP mainly focuses on technical aspects of information security, the CISM training focuses more on organizational aspects. At Certified Information Security Manager, we mainly focus on Information Security Governance, Information Risk Management, Information Security Program Development, Information Security Program Management and Incident Management and Response.
Knowledge and skills are applied on the basis of a practical assignment, resulting in a paper. This creates a good mix of theory, practice and the current working environment. Competencies such as analytical capacity, cooperation, communication and presentation, the professional methods and techniques and application skills (reliability, quality, efficiency and effectiveness) are examined. The student is ultimately assessed on input, collaboration, reflection, paper and presentation thereof.
In addition to this training, we also offer two other interesting training courses in information security, namely: the CISA en ISO27001 Foundation training
This course is intended for people in the role of IT Security Manager, Security Officer, Security Consultant etc., who want to become CISM certified. The aim is to prepare the participant for the CISM Certified Information Security Manager exam. After this training, the participant has knowledge, insight and analysis and evaluation skills with regard to managing the information security of systems.
Experience may also be gained after the exam, but 5 years of experience in information security, of which 3 years within 3 of the 5 knowledge domains is required for the certification itself.
So course-> exam-> work experience-> accreditation.
The level of the CISM training is HBO+.
The training usually lasts 4 consecutive days.
