Recertification is required for the CPS and CAP certifications. It takes a combination of education, experience and commitment to make a professional secretary; thus, recertification is a way to validate your professionalism throughout your career. Over a five year period, one must collect 90 points from a combination of areas, including college courses, CEU courses, project management, leadership roles and other areas.
In order to assist you in tracking your recertification points, we have put together a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet. Click the link below to download the file.

Note: This is an optional program. You do not have to be a member of IAAP in order to take the examination, and you do not have to take the examination in order to belong to IAAP. You also do not have to take the review courses to take the exam (although we strongly recommend them).
