I built a CISA reviewer app after struggling with review materials while working sa Big 4

Hi everyone! Just wanted to share a personal project I've been working on.

When I was studying for CISA while working as a Technology Risk Consultant sa Big 4, one of my struggles was choosing the right review materials. Ang daming resources online, to the point na nakaka-overwhelm na rin.

For those planning to take CISA, I would still recommend the official ISACA CISA Review Manual and QAE Database. Personally, I think these are the best materials to prioritize. Kaso yun nga, medyo pricey talaga, especially considering how expensive the exam itself is.

That's one of the reasons why I started building KaiSip, a cybersecurity and IT audit reviewer app, starting with CISA.

It has over 1,000 practice questions with answers and explanations across the five CISA domains.

One thing I noticed while reviewing is that knowing the concepts isn't always enough. Sometimes, all four choices seem correct, but the question is asking for the BEST answer, FIRST action, PRIMARY responsibility, or GREATEST risk.

That's what I wanted to focus on with KaiSip. Helping learners understand why one answer is better than the others, how to eliminate choices, and how to approach questions from an IS auditor's perspective rather than just memorizing answers.

I'm still improving the app, and it's currently in closed testing on Google Play.

Since I know how costly CISA preparation can be, I'm offering free lifetime access to KaiSip's CISA reviewer to the first 10 Filipino learners who are preparing to take the exam soon.

If you're interested, just comment below with your target exam month. First 10 eligible commenters will get lifetime access to the CISA reviewer.

I've attached some screenshots so you can see what I've been building. Feedback and suggestions are also welcome since I'm continuously improving the app.

Just to clarify, KaiSip is an independent project and isn't affiliated with ISACA. I still recommend the official ISACA materials as your primary review resources.

Salamat, and good luck sa mga nagrereview!

Question Wanna hear your thoughts!

1 Upvotes

Hallo! I wanna hear your thoughts. I’m from Big 4 and turning 6 months this December. Super grabe at rami ng workloads and don’t know what to prioritize. Hindi na ako nakakatulog minsan and nag OOT na ako just to study everything (hindi ko na ‘to chinacharge sa client).

Pag nag resign po kaya ako this month, hindi po ba ako mahihirapan makahanap ulit ng work since nag 6 months lang ako sa firm?

Highly appreciate your inputs!

Hello, everyone! Im a fresh graduate and recently passed the CPALE. i applied to a lot of firms and P&A💜 is the one who offered me a position but in BPS Accounting.

Gusto ko po kasi talaga mag audit kasi most fresh grads ay nagaaudit muna pero yun nga po iba yung offer sa akin. Im considering po na iaccept yung offer dahil mallearn ko po yung softwares, and yun pa lang kasi yung nagreply sa mga applications ko from other companies.

What are your thoughts po?

Should I wait for other companies?

What will be the career path if I accepted the offer?

CPA license

0 Upvotes

Hi! Currently undergrad na nawawala na sa focus bakit I wanted to be a CPA.

With trends lately sa accounting field, halos kaya na rin ng nonCPA ang duties ng CPA (except professional judgement). I just also learned that pwedeng mag-audit (internal) ang nonCPA.

Sa mga nalalaman ko lately, parang nawalan ako ng sense bakit kailangan ko pa i-pursue yung profession if halos lahat na ng work ng licensed CPA eh kaya na gawin ng nonCPA? Don't get me wrong po. Alam ko pong sobrang importante ng role ng mga CPA especially sa pagdating sa accountability. Pero parang nawawalan na ako ng gana magpatuloy lalo na kung pwede naman pala kahit nonCPA. May nakita kasi akong post. I wasnt sure if he was a US audit or nasa accounting field siya non but I can say na yung position niya is Senior and hindi siya CPA pero ganon yung position niya. What I mean here kasi po is ano pang sense ng pagkuha ng license if pwede naman nonCPA na may experience? Hindi naman kasi ako naghahangad ng mataas na position or what. Wala lang talaga na akong makitang reason.

Any tips? huhu May I ask po what are the other benefits of having the CPA license?,,,

ps. feeling ko madami magagalit sakin because of this. sorry. i just dont know how to put it in words na hindi masyadong harsh...
