Rationale for article creation

Dear Wikipedians,
CRISC is the fourth certification created by ISACA, an organisation that has a membership base of more than 95,000 members worldwide and is widely recognized among Audit, Control, Information Security and Risk Management professionals. ^[1]. According to ISACA, 9000 professionals applied for recognition of certification under Grandfathering program (which was due on 30th June 2011). Moreover, after only 4 months into the Grandfathering program, 1000 professionals had been certified^[2]. That is 25% of the CGEIT cerified professionals since 2007 (bsed on ISACA's data, in their website).
IMHO, these facts are sufficient to make this certification notable enough to have its own article in Wikipedia.

Article status

Please note that the article is little more than a stub at this stage (although it has structure and verifiable sources), and I intend to expand it in the next few weeks once I can get some extra time in "real life". Regards, DPdH (talk) 15:54, 1 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

UPDATE: added some "external links" to 3rd party sources which provide news and information about CRISC. As is a relatively nwe certification, not too much info can yet be found online. Will try to find some "hardcopy" 3rd party sources. Regards, DPdH (talk) 08:29, 6 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
