Dear All,

A warm welcome to 2024! We hope you enjoyed the holidays to the fullest surrounded by friends and family and are now ready for all the exciting opportunities the new year has in store for you.

In today's newsletter, we would like to inform our many new members about the benefits of ISACA membership as well as remind them of our long-time members.

You can find contact details and lots of interesting information about our association online at www.isaca.de and in our regular newsletters. You are welcome to follow us on social media: we will always keep you up to date via LinkedIn, X, Facebook and YouTube.

We offer a wide range of training and events, which our members can take advantage of free of charge or at discounted prices.

Furthermore, in addition to the international ISACA Journal, our members regularly receive the journal IT-Governance free of charge and have unlimited access to the online archive.

Further benefits of membership in the German Chapter can be found here. For possible further benefits, I recommend that you also take a look at the websites of our cooperation partners.

In addition to personal membership, your company can become an institutional partner with us and benefit from the advantages of a sponsoring partnership.
