About us
The ISACA® Central UK Chapter was formed in 1993 to provide ISACA®
members living or working in the Midlands with the opportunity to network
with fellow professionals. We also provide training and professional
development opportunities in Midlands.
Membership now stands at over 430 members. Our members come from both the
public and private sectors, and include professionals and practitioners
at all levels in Audit (both IT and business), Information Security,
Risk and Compliance, IT Governance and IT.
We meet every other month in the centre of Birmingham and Bristol.
Our mission:
To promote the Assurance, Security and Governance of information
systems locally.
Achieved
by:
- promotion of research, standards, competencies
and good practices to Chapter members and organisations

delivering their global strategic direction.
