Disclaimer: The ISP Exam Preparation Program (EPP) is the only guided study program for the ISP Certification that is developed and sanctioned by NCMS. While NCMS endeavors to ensure that the NCMS-provided EPP materials are current and accurate, NCMS is unable to guarantee the accuracy or currency of all program content. Use and review of the NCMS EPP materials does not imply or guarantee a successful outcome or result on the ISP examination. NCMS does not review nor does it endorse ISP certification examination preparation materials developed and/or advertised by any third party.
How much does the Exam Preparation Program cost?
The cost is $50 for NCMS members and $100 for non-members. This fee covers the entire program, including the workbook, and is due at the time of registration.
What materials will I need for the course?
All course material is included in the program fee. There is a workbook, and several other guides which are provided throughout the course. Registered candidates are added to the NCMS HUB Community created specifically for sharing information related to the Exam Prep Program.
Course material is posted in the HUB for easy access. Emailing of documents often gets interrupted by spam filters, therefore the HUB is the preferred method to transmit course material.
Do I need to complete the EPP before I take the exam?
No, participation in the EPP is voluntary and not a requirement for the exam. You may take the exam at any time after completing the required exam application procedures.
Who are the Facilitators of the EPP?
The chair, vice chair, and facilitators of the EPP are experienced security professionals who have already obtained their ISP certification. Each member of the team is well versed in the NISPOM and the various topics to be covered.
How do I register?
Please check back as we make the change to Round 40 On Demand Training for the EPP.
