Frequently asked
How much does the ISACA AAIA certification cost?
The exam costs $459 for ISACA members and $599 for non-members, plus a $50 application processing fee paid after passing to claim the certification.
Do I need CISA before AAIA?
An active CISA qualifies you automatically. If you do not hold CISA, you can qualify through an IT audit or advisory role combined with one of 15 accepted audit and accounting designations such as CIA or a national CPA.
AAIA vs AIGP: which AI certification fits audit roles?
AAIA is an advanced, prerequisite-gated credential about auditing AI systems, aimed at working auditors. AIGP is IAPP's no-prerequisite AI governance credential aimed at governance and compliance roles. Auditors typically stack AAIA on CISA.
