Effective

Good book to commence the CISM journey. I recommend it to anyone planning on taking the CISM exam, especially if audio learning works for you.

Great Source!

The tone of the speaker is monotone, but the information is great. The material is straight to the point and even though I’m only halfway through, I feel more confident already.

Great addition to your CISM journey

This was the first book for me on my CISM journey. I already have CASP and I want to eventually get CISSP. CISM offers a good middle ground in my eyes and so I bought it because it offered a top level overview of the objectives.

The book doesn’t deep dive or convolute and it’s perfect if your objectives is to genuinely familiarize with the domains before going deeper with other titles.

The narrator has a good tone which is pretty important to me given the information is text book style learning.

There’s a Q&A at each of the four chapters that allows you to gauge where you need more help. This helped me understand where I needed more time in my future research.

Excellent as primary source I used to pass exam

Gwen’s way of explaining the key areas of the CISM were ingrained through repeated listening of this audio book. Her methods of associating what items are important to know and ensuring connections with knowledge needed for the test were relatable. The content was top rated though there were minor non-content errors. Gwen also has a faster speaking style that required me to dial down the speed to about 0.8x. Nevertheless, I would not post a positive review of her material if they were in fact consequential to the benefit of the true knowledge you will gain for your CISM prep. I would highly recommend using this along with the Pocket Prep - CISM Module (which Gwen also took part) where a vast majority of what I effectively used to pass the exam.

Well written and informative

Gwen Bettwy not only nails the content, but has an excellent cadence in narrating her book.
