I need advice based on CISA certification technicalities.

I joined a big 4 very late in my career and kind of have started from the bottom again. I want to immediately get certifications so i can progress.

I absolutely do not want to waste any time right now. I had 100% decided on giving the 3 CIA exams until i talked to my boss.

She advised me to take the CISA first, which will let me take the fast track CIA exams until ( which means i can take 1 exam instead of 3) - which will save me alot of money, plus our department does IT related audits in addition to regular Internal Audits, so that would help me.

We dont get any financial help in exams where i live.

I was 100% on board until i saw that to take the fast track CIA i need to be CISA “CERITFIED” which means i also need 5 years of experience.

Thats the problem. Even if i take the CISA exam now ( maybe in 3 months), that will only be 6-8 months into my purely audit career. If my bachelors degree waives off 2 years, thats still 3 years remaining.

I dont want to waste that long into giving my CIA and CISA. Would love some input from you guys.

Education: Bachelors in a business management degree

Career path:

  1. Commercial Analyst for 4.5 years ( mainly Worked on financial models, economics, operational planning, also on the very side worked on information required by internal or External auditors.

  2. one year of experience as a Data analyst

  3. from January 2026 i started working as an associate in a BIG 4 - Internal Audit/Risk Advisory department
