I have lost my certificate. Can it be reissued?

If your certificate has been lost, you can contact the certification body that took your exam or the iSAQB. Generally, you can request a copy of your certificate within 10 years after the date of the exam.

I’m a student. Can I take the Advanced Level examination as well?

The Advanced Level examination is aimed at people with professional experience, see also the requirements in the Advanced Level Examination Rules. If you are a student with work experience, it is best to check whether you meet all the requirements using the Advanced Level Examination Rules.

What is the difference between a certification body and a training provider?

The iSAQB has stipulated that there be a formal and organizational separation between training course providers and certification bodies – hence these two different roles. Training course providers offer training, courses, workshops in order to prepare you for the CPSA-F examination for instance, or your CPSA-A examination project.

Certification bodies organize the CPSA-F and CPSA-A examination – but must not offer any training or seminars in this area themselves.
