I also work fulltime and will only have weekends and holidays to study

    • @BecomingBossC

      Can you wake up early to study? Or maybe study during lunch time on the weekdays? Consistent, daily studying will help you pass and retain information. I have heard great things about Gleim...but Wiley worked for me! 🙂

I am thinking about working towards a career in audit or compliance. From my research so far I am interested in CIA, CFE, CAMS…but I feel like CIA will require more experience on field,which I don’t have yet. Do you think those other certifications can help?

    Congrats on passing the exam and reaching 1K Subs. 2 Questions for you: Did you feel the CIA exam was considerably easier than CPA exam? Does the test show you how much time you have remaining since you are not allowed to wear a watch in the testing center?

    • @BecomingBossC
      @BecomingBossC  2 роки тому

      Thank you, CitizenOfTheYear! 🤩
      1. I felt like the CPA exam helped prepare me for the CIA exam. The content definitely overlaps quite a bit when it comes to similar professional standards, the financial management piece in part 3, and the basics of auditor roles and responsibilities. On the other hand, the IT section in part 3 was totally new for me.
      2. Yes, the test screen shows you the remaining time you have left. The clock also turns into red text once you only have 5 minutes remaining to prompt you to speed up.

    Hi, while taking the membership or while registering for the level1/2/3 exams, will IIA provide the study materials for the registered level of exam or should we but study materials separately from Gleim or Wiley? Or should we but the materials of IIA by paying separately for the study materials?

    • @BecomingBossC

      Hi, great questions! The IIA will NOT provide study materials for free. You can purchase their study materials from the IIA website or purchase study materials from third party companies, such as Wiley and Gleim. Hope this helps! 😊

    • @BecomingBossC

      Honestly, I was not very familiar with Gleim. Wiley had the video lectures, exam study planner, study book and focus notes that I like. Once I passed the first exam using Wiley, I stuck with their study system. I have heard great things about Gleim as well. Thanks for the question!

I am still in the same role I was before passing the exam, but I plan to transition to a new role within the year. :) It affects everyone differently...but it gives you more credibility as an internal auditor overall.

      To summarize, there are many companies that offer printed study materials, such as Wiley, the Institute of Internal Auditors, Gleim, etc. Personally, I used Wiley for parts 1 and 2. Then I used Wiley and the IIA's learning system for part 3.
