Solutions Management | Holistic Information Security Practitioner Center of Excellence

Introduction

The Holistic Information Security Practitioner Institute (HISPI), the worldwide visionary in Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) thought leadership, has designated Corporate College, a division of Cuyahoga Community College based in Cleveland, as the world's first HISPI Center of Excellence. In addition to the appointment, the HISPI works with the Corporate College Technology Solutions Institute (TSI) on the development of information security programs that support the fast growing HISP professional certification.

The HISPI Center of Excellence rewards institutions that embrace the concept of true integrated security processes and incorporates the HISP philosophy into their curriculum to help their clients harness the capabilities of this unique approach to GRC. As one of the country's leading schools in this field, Corporate College provides professional education, training, and testing facilities for the Holistic Information Security Practitioner Certification program that falls under the TSI Security and Business Continuity Learning System.

Program Description

The Holistic Information Security Practitioner (HISP) professional development and certification program is designed to show you how to more efficiently achieve multiple regulatory objectives for information security and privacy with a unified approach to IT best practice frameworks. Endorsed by British Standards Institute (BSI) Americas, the world’s leading standards and certification organization, the HISP certification course is the only educational curriculum available today that teaches how to integrate ISO 27002/27001 with COBIT, COSO, ITIL, and multiple regulatory requirements pertaining to information security, privacy and good business practice.

The Need for HISP Certification Designation

There is a significant shortage of information security, audit, consulting, and compliance personnel that have the proper skills necessary to implement holistic integrated cost saving compliance systems. This directly increases information security and compliance cost. Knowledge transfer through comprehensive training and competency verification through certification provides the essential credentials that take consulting and security professionals to the next level.

The Holistic Information Security Practitioner (HISP) Program was created to address the current shortage of information security and compliance professionals that practice integration business techniques. It provides practical skills needed to help organizations address information security, compliance, and process improvement by being able to implement compliance frameworks that are repeatable, sustainable, and effective.

The HISP program is complementary to other existing, recognized certification such as CISSP, CISA, CISM, and CFA. In undertaking the HISP program, the professional also gains 35 CPE credits (or points) to help maintain their other qualifications.
