The exam fee buys you one attempt at the Computer Hacking Forensic Investigator. Everything else on your path to certification, revision material included, sits outside this price, and that is where most of the budget of a certification actually goes.

Self-study candidates need 2 years of infosec experience plus approval via a non-refundable US$100 eligibility application (official training waives that route).
