ASIS Chapter 208 (UK) Sets 2008 Exam Dates

ASIS Chapter 208 (UK) has announced a new certification programme that will see it conducting CPP examinations in May and November of 2008. The chapter, Europe’s largest, will be running condensed one-week ‘crammer’ courses in conjuntion with ARC Training immediately before the exams but applicants will be able to begin learning four months earlier using a distance learning package.

The programme will be managed by ARC Training International, in collaboration with MFD International. Details are as follows:

Examination 1/2008
Distance study begins: End of January
Preparation programme: 28th April – 2nd May
Examination: 3rd May

Examination 2/2008
Distance study begins: End of July
Preparation programme: 27th – 31st October
Examination: 1st November

The subsidised Region 25 ASIS members' cost of the package, including accommodation, is £1225 + VAT. Applicants outside Region 25 should contact Janet Ward at ARC.

For details on how to register, contact the professional certification representative, David Cresswell. Upon registration and receipt of payment you will be sent a copy of the CPP Study Guide.

Please note that there is no change to the PSP certification schedule:

Distance study begins: End of July
Preparation programme: 27th – 31st October
Examination: 1st November

A record number of candidates are expected to sit the CPP examination in November of this year, which ASIS says demonstrates the importance of the qualification. Candidates can check their eligibility at:
