ISACA certifications are globally recognized and allow ISACA members to progress their careers, raise their earning potential and add value in their current positions. In October, the Bank of Ghana recognized ISACA certifications and certificates in its Cyber & Information Security Directive’s Enhanced Competency Framework (ECF) on Cybersecurity. This directive aims to provide a framework for cybersecurity and information security protocols and procedures, in particular for the financial services industry in Ghana.
The directive’s ECF encourages professionals in various roles involved in ensuring operational cyberresilience to attain the CSX Fundamentals Certificate, CSX Practitioner certification (CSXP) or Cybersecurity Audit Certificate at the Core Level (for entry-level staff with fewer than 5 years of relevant experience) and to achieve the Certified Information Systems Auditor (CISA), Certified in Risk and Information Systems Control (CRISC), Certified Information Security Manager (CISM) or Certified in the Governance of Enterprise IT (CGEIT) at the Professional Level (for staff with 5 or more years of relevant experience).
