CISM blueprint
Treat every domain as a required area of competence, then use its linked objectives to define exactly what to learn and practice. Published weights indicate relative exam emphasis, not permission to ignore lower-weight areas.
Review the knowledge behind each objective, apply it in scenarios or practical work, and use targeted questions to test the decision being measured. Move to timed simulation only after the complete blueprint has been covered.
