Newcomer I

Various requirements for certifications

Example for CISSP
Candidates must have a minimum of five years cumulative paid work experience in two or more of the eight domains of the CISSP CBK. Earning a four-year college degree or regional equivalent or an additional credential from the (ISC)² approved list will satisfy one year of the required experience. Education credit will only satisfy one year of experience.

I have been working in both the software development support\systems administration\ and service desk for 28 years, I hold an MCSA\SE certification, Security +, Network+ a multitude of SQL certifications from Microsoft, and most recently AWS sysOps. I am also ITIL certified. I worked at Microsoft for 10 years and have now been in Healthcare IT for 14 years. 
My last three titles have been:
Senior Computer Specialist\Service Desk Supervisor

Senior Computer Specialist\ Department Manager
Senior Computer Specialist\Windows Administrator

Previous to that Software Test Engineer, Support Analyst, Systems Engineer. I think I have enought work experience to qualify to take the CISSP exam

(ISC)² will only accept endorsement applications after you have successfully passed the exam.

 

The endorsement process is where you submit your resume so your experience can be validated.
