Meetings are held bi-monthly in Melbourne but there are dial-in facilities available for any members who are based inter-state or who cannot attend in person.

CISSP Study Groups
The AISA CISSP Study Group is a volunteer run initiative to bring together AISA members who are studying for the CISSP in weekly sessions in the lead up to the exam and (where possible) provide mentors who are subject matter experts in their designated CBK Domain. The primary goal of these sessions is to give the participants a formalised structure for study in the lead up to the exam. The secondary goal is to allow knowledge sharing from both participants and mentors to demonstrate how the concepts covered relate to real-world experience. It's also a great way to meet with like-minded individuals to expand networks for support and lively debate.
