Certification
Gaining one of these certifications requires passing the exam in addition to having some years of work experience. Further details of the work experience requirements are provided in each of the certification pages.
However, those without the required experience can still take the exam and become an Associate of ISC2 while working towards the experience needed for full certification.
The Associate of ISC2 badge demonstrates to employers that you have what it takes to add value to their cybersecurity team now as you progress on your journey to certification. It also means you are part of the global ISC2 community, with access to a broad array of professional development opportunities as you obtain the required work experience, advance your career and ultimately earn your certification.
