text: What a surprise it was to have received the William S. Smith award and the certificate of honors. I had worked very hard to pass all three CIA exams and did so in less than 6 months, passing each exam the first time. And while I was happy to earn the CIA certification, I was thrilled that my exam results were good enough to receive this additional recognition. None of this would have been possible without the support of Gleim. The test prep materials were amazing. I work 12 hour days and have a long commute…not to mention a family life as well. So the amount of time I had to study was very limited. The Gleim materials allowed me to be efficient with my time; the on-line tracking showed me how to study more effectively by pointing out areas where I was weak and needed focus. Also, the Audio CDs helped me make best use of my daily commutes. Overall, a very comprehensive package of materials that I would recommend to any busy executive who wants to pass this rigorous examination. THANK YOU GLEIM!!!
