ISC2 Certification FAQs
There are three steps to becoming a member of ISC2. First, you must take and pass one of the six credential examinations. Then, you must submit an endorsement application to prove that you have the years of experience that are required to hold the credential. Once your endorsement is approved, you must pay the Annual Maintenance Fee (AMF).
To be an Associate of ISC2, you need to pass an ISC2 credential examination. If you do not have the years of work experience required to hold the certification, you can become an Associate of ISC2 until you have the necessary work experience to hold the credential. You can hold the Associate of ISC² designation for one year past the number of years allowed to meet the work experience requirement. Please refer to the ISC2 Associate page for more information.
CPE activities are any educational activity you complete that you believe furthers your development as a professional with the cybersecurity industry. Please refer to ISC2’s CPE opportunities page for various opportunities that you may use to help meet your CPE requirement.
CPE credits can rollover from the third year to the first year (of the new three-year cycle) if earned in excess of the minimum requirement within the last six months of the cycle.
