I've seen ISACA is doing a 50% discount for members on their exam materials for their AI certs (shame not exam vouchers too...) and wondered if I should bite the bullet on one of these.

I already have CISM and CRISC with ISACA, plus some ISC2 certs as well, so is this really worth it though?

I am sceptical as to whether these AI certs will ever achieve 'brand recognition' like some of the more established quals...

Seeking opinions on:

1. Is taking one of these certs worth the ticket price?
2. If yes, which one out of AAISM or AAIR will provide more utility?

Thanks!

ETA - I know a lot of people say "Well, if work is paying do whatever". I would *try* and get my employer to fund, but our approvals process is slow, so to catch the discount window, I'd probably have to fund myself initially.

If you are interested in having the opportunity to sit this cert for free, act now.

ISC2 has also advised that all exams under this initiative must be scheduled and sat by the end of this calendar year, so if you have already claimed a voucher, but are yet to book your exam, get on it.
