Important Recertification Changes: On Friday, 09 March 2007 the
Professional Certification Board announced changes to the
recertification process for all ASIS certifications effective January 1,
2008 (click here
to read announcement). The change implements a new standard of
calculating recertification credits, by using the Continuing
Professional Education System (CPE). For more information, please
view presentation on the
CPE
Recertification Credit System or the
CPE Implementation
Document. Additional information can be found on the
ASIS
Recertification Website.

ARE YOU CERTIFIABLE?
ASIS International administers three certification programs to meet
the demand for professional security practitioners. The three
certification programs are:
Certified Protection Professional (CPP): Introduced in 1977, this certification
designates individuals who have demonstrated competency in all areas
constituting security management. For more information

here.
Professional Certified Investigator (PCI): Introduced in 2002,
holders of the PCI
certification have demonstrated education and/ or experience in the
fields of case management, evidence collection, and case presentation.

Physical Security Professional (PSP): Introduced in 2002, the PSP designation is
the certification for those who primary responsibility to conduct threat
surveys, design integrated security systems that include equipment,
procedures and people, or install, operate and maintain those systems.

Why Certify?: The simple answers is that to remain as
competitive as possible today, you must be certified. The bar has
been raised in the security profession and employers, contractors,
governments, and even clients are now taking additional steps to ensure
that they are hiring or working with the most skilled and knowledgeable
individual in the business.
