I'm looking into working towards the CISSP and can see it requires a minimum of five years in two or more domains. It also mentions a four year degree can be used to contribute to one of those years.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>I've worked as an IAM engineer for around 7~ years which will definitely cover the IAM domain and I think probably parts of others. I also studied computer forensics and network security for my university degree which I think would cover parts of various domains too - am I right in thinking I can use my degree experience as proof of experience in domains other than IAM?</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Thanks in advance!</P> Fri, 24 Nov 2023 21:37:54 GMT https://community.isc2.org/t5/Exam-Preparation/CISSP-can-I-use-university-degree-as-proof-of-work-in-domains/m-p/64861#M4137 bsf 2023-11-24T21:37:54Z https://community.isc2.org/t5/Exam-Preparation/CISSP-can-I-use-university-degree-as-proof-of-work-in-domains/m-p/64863#M4138 <P>No, For CISSP experience has to be in the form of paid work experience(unpaid Internship counts too) in one of the eight domains.<BR /><BR />A qualifying degree counts as a year of experience, but no more.</P> Sat, 25 Nov 2023 20:33:18 GMT https://community.isc2.org/t5/Exam-Preparation/CISSP-can-I-use-university-degree-as-proof-of-work-in-domains/m-p/64863#M4138 Early_Adopter 2023-11-25T20:33:18Z
