I have great pleasure in welcoming you to this ISA Portal offering specialized facilities for participants of the ISA Course.

Organisations today are facing increasing competition and challenges considering globalisation, new world trade order and increasing trend towards business process outsourcing. We also find business going through process of business process reengineering to provide for faster & better mechanisms to supply goods and services.

One thing common in all these initiatives is that organisations are making greater use technology solutions - Software Applications, ERP implementations, deployment of IT infrastructure (Servers, Computers, Networks), to support their core business functionality like core banking solutions, reservation systems. This increasing IT penetration is not without its pitfalls and failures. There is an increasing need to review security and controls, as the market exposure and risks are mammoth.

There is an increasing need for Information System Audit Assurance Services considering the increasing demand for these services from regulatory authorities (RBI/ Stock Exchanges), governmental agencies (C&AG) and businesses.

The Institute is committed to helping its members keep pace with the times and winds of change by launching the Post Qualification Course on Information System Audit. This site has been launched to provide updated information to Chartered Accountants in this emerging field in a unique way - Course Details, Online Registration Form, Details of forthcoming ISA PT Batches, Notification of ISA Eligibility Test, Facility to Register for ISA ET, Downloading ISA ET Certificate, IT Harmony, E- Newsletter of Committee on Information Technology, Professional Opportunities in the field of IS Audit and a mail box to candidates pursuing the ISA Course to inform about course details.

I would urge upon the members pursuing the ISA course to regularly visit this site to update themselves with latest developments about the course, professional opportunities and technical update through the IT Harmony in an effort to gain sufficient experience in this upcoming field and emerge as the key service providers of IS Assurance.

I wish you all great success in this emerging field.
