CGRC before CISSP?

Before I embark on the CISSP, I was wondering if getting the CGRC would make sense or is even recommended. I mainly work in the GRC area (doing policy work), and would like to get a more solid understanding of the different frameworks etc. I am thinking that getting a CGRC certification could help me here. 

 

Does it make sense to attempt this certification without the knowledge & experience required for a CISSP?

 

Thanks for any guidance you may have.

@dips0502 Thanks for the info.
Kind of disappointing.  If ISC2 is pushing this as a "GRC" cert vs a "CAP" cert, then they need to add MORE stuff from other frameworks such as COBIT, CIS Controls, 27001, NIST CSF, etc and NOT be so heavy on RMF.
