All four CRISC exam domains, on your schedule
The course works straight through ISACA’s CRISC exam content outline: four job-practice domains, each weighted as it is on the exam. You cover every area the 150-question exam tests, in whatever order and at whatever pace suits you.
Governance
26%- Organizational governance: strategy, structure, culture, and how the enterprise sets its risk appetite.
- Risk governance: lines of defense, the risk profile, and embedding risk in decision making.
IT Risk Assessment
22%- Risk identification: threats, vulnerabilities, and emerging risk across the technology estate.
- Risk analysis and evaluation: likelihood, impact, and comparing exposure against appetite.
Risk Response and Reporting
32%- Risk response: treatment options and the design and implementation of controls.
- Monitoring and reporting: key risk indicators, dashboards, and communicating risk posture.
Information Technology and Security
20%- Information technology principles: the architecture and operations underneath the risk.
- Information security principles: controls, frameworks, and how security events become enterprise risk.
Domains and weightings follow ISACA’s official CRISC exam content outline. The CRISC exam is 150 questions in 4 hours, scored 200 to 800, with 450 to pass.
Self-paced or the live 4-day boot camp
Both cover the same CRISC exam domains. The difference is structure, accountability, and what is bundled with your seat.

Self-paced CRISC, answered
What is included in the self-paced CRISC course?
Four ISACA items: the official CRISC Online Review Course (over 14 dynamic modules, roughly 14 hours of seat time, covering all four exam domains), the official CRISC Review Manual eBook, the Questions, Answers & Explanations database, and your CRISC exam registration. The live instruction, the free retake and the year of ISACA membership are boot camp only.
How long do I have access?
Six months from the date of purchase, delivered through the Learning Access tab of your MyISACA dashboard. Your progress saves between logins, so you can stop and pick up where you left off.
Is the ISACA exam registration included?
Yes. Your CRISC exam registration is included in the $1,495 price, along with ISACA’s official Online Review Course, the Review Manual eBook and the question database. You sit the exam whenever you decide you are ready.
Do I earn CPE for the self-paced CRISC course?
Yes. Completing the CRISC Online Review Course earns 17.5 CPE, which count toward the ISACA certifications you already hold. You self-report them. This is ISACA CPE and is separate from NASBA CPE, which applies to our third-party risk management training.
Is this ISACA’s own courseware?
Yes. Risk Tide is an ISACA Accredited Training Organization, so the self-paced course is ISACA’s official CRISC Online Review Course, with ISACA’s own Review Manual, question database and exam registration bundled in. You are not buying a third-party rewrite of the exam content.
Why is this cheaper than buying from ISACA directly?
As an Accredited Training Organization we set our own price on the same official ISACA course. The four ISACA items in this package list at $2,193 separately without a membership, and ISACA’s own bundle of them is $1,860.
What are the requirements for CRISC certification?
ISACA requires three years of experience in IT risk management and information systems control. There are no experience waivers for CRISC.
What does the CRISC exam look like?
The exam is 150 questions, scored on a 200 to 800 scale, with 450 required to pass. Your voucher is included, and you schedule the exam with ISACA when you feel ready.
Who is the self-paced CRISC course for?
Professionals who identify and manage enterprise IT risk and implement information systems controls. It suits you if you are self-disciplined and would rather study around your job than block out 4 consecutive days.
How long is the exam voucher valid?
Six months. Since 16 April 2026 ISACA applies a six-month window across exams, question databases and online review courses: the product must be redeemed within six months of purchase, and once redeemed you have six months to use it, including scheduling and sitting the exam. Tell us if your timeline is longer so we can advise before you buy rather than after.
Can I get a refund?
No. ISACA’s policy on online learning is that access is granted immediately on purchase, so all purchases of the online course are final and no refunds or exchanges are provided. If you are unsure whether self-paced or the live boot camp suits you, ask us before you buy rather than after.
Should I choose self-paced or the live boot camp?
Self-paced is the lower-cost, start-today option, it covers the same exam domains, and you get the same ISACA study materials and exam registration either way. What the boot camp adds is live instruction, a free retake and a year of ISACA membership. The live 4-day boot camp is better if you want a live instructor and a fixed timeline to hold you to. Both are delivered by Risk Tide as an ISACA Accredited Training Organization.
