Professional certification is increasingly required in today's security industry. Employers are seeking experienced practitioners who can provide confirmation that they have mastered an essential body of knowledge.
The Certified Protection Professional designation has been recognized around the world as security's highest professional achievement since 1977. Practitioners who have successfully passed the exam to earn the CPP are board certified in security management. The CPP increases job security because it is an individually owned credential that is portable across industry sectors and international boundaries.
The CPP Review is a two-day program designed to refresh your knowledge in the major areas of security management tested on the CPP exam. Instruction is based on reference materials that are the source of exam content.
