Class only worth it if going to take CISM exam. Course material highly disorganized (w/ old material), does not respond to emails or post things in timely manner, & the syllabus was useless b/c he makes it up as he goes. Seriously regret this course, only took it b/c it was online. Also requires weekly mtgs which I did not expect for online course.

This professor has a fun personality, the class is laid back and shorter than any class you will find. The assignments are disastrous, tons of errors in the workbooks, only take this class if your an advanced tech person

Doesn't teach anything, if you don't have prior knowledge in auditing, better be careful. You have to read everything on your own. have to read a lot if you want to do well in the quizzes. an easy grader though, he will some of the answers to quiz questions before it starts. the least grade he would give in the class is a B. so good in this aspect!

This professor is good at what he does. He gives you an overview the basics of IT Audit and for preparing for the CISA and CISM exams. This is a graduate course, and you should read the course description before signing up. Some students who have very little knowledge of IT Security or IT Audit found themselves lost and struggling. Good course.

Stay Away from this professor, if you are new to IS Auditing. This is just a review for those who are going to take CISA exam. I don't think you should pay $3000 for CISA review. He shouldn't be teaching at NJIT. After first 3 weeks , I spoke to the Dean of GS and he told me that he knew this guy was horrible, but i have no choice but to stick with
Subject is great. Prof knows his stuff. Just wished the book was written and organized better. I ended buying another book so I can study from though. Interesting class. A lot of info to know, wished btr study material. Ask questions! Study a lot to do well on quizzes. I don't like how Prof puts the students down when quizzes are not done well.

IS680 and 681 are excellant review classes for the CISA and CISM Exams. I was able to successfully pass both exams first time with the information I learned in these classes. These are not easy tests. I would have to give Professor Clifton an A+ on a job well done!

Horrible professor who is impossible to extract information from. Waits till the last minute to respond to emails and hardly has class. This is grad school, we are here to learn! Take him if you want an easy A, but don't if you want to learn.
Very easy, but don't expect to learn very much with this professor. He does not know how to run a class, but if you're looking for an easy A, take him.
He knows the material, but you have to prod him for information (standard for a graduate course). Puts a little too much stress on the CISM exam, so be prepared. Overall a great professor.
