Thanks for the great content! I am currently working as an business risk consultant and really want to step in the technology risk consultant field too! I used to be an financial statement auditor and I am a CPA( US version of ACCA, I guess). Just found your channel and I am sure I will learn a lot from your channel!

Hello 😊 I am an aspiring CISA.I come from a fintech domain where I am a software implementation team member.As I study for the exam I have a lot of questions regarding the opportunities I should look for (as I am sure I will clear the exam - it is a necessity) Coming from not so technical background just by passing the exam what are the future roles I can look at. Are there a few more things I should learn in addition to passing the CISA exam? I am sure there are many like me who have numerous questions in this regard. Can you make a short guidance video in this context.will be of some great help. Thanks, Bhagya
