The Power of Certification

Chapter Member, Darren Buckley was successful in the CPP™ Examination held in November 2009. Members Andy Wray, Andrew Miller, Hayden George and Donald Beattie were successful in the PSP™ Examination.

The number of CPP's in New Zealand currently stands at 32 and there are 10 PSP's (4 of whom also hold the CPP™). One member holds all three certifications, CPP™, PSP™ and PCI™.

ASIS International has been offering an internationally recognised certification in the field of Security Management through its Certified Protection Professional (CPP™) for nearly 30 years. Thousands of security professionals throughout the world have embraced this scheme to achieve certification, which has risen to be a worldwide benchmark in security management. In 2002 ASIS International introduced two further certification programmes; the Professional Certified Investigator (PCI™) and the Physical Security Professional (PSP™). 

The bar has been raised in the security profession and employers, contractors, governments and even clients are now taking additional steps to ensure that they are hiring or working with the most skilled and knowledgeable individuals in the business. Professional certifications from ASIS International offer them another screening tool - one that has backing and credibility of the leading professional society in the world for those who are responsible for security.

ASIS International Certification continues to gain momentum and the number of certifications obtained worldwide every year provides an indication of their value to security practitioners.

The International examinations for candidates outside the USA and Canada are normally held on the first Saturday of November.

On 6 November 2004, the first ever PSP™ examination administered outside the United States and Canada was held in New Zealand. Other countries including Singapore, Belgium and the United Kingdom followed later that day. On 3 November 2007, the New Zealand Chapter scored another first by hosting the first ever PCI™ examination held outside the continental USA.

The New Zealand Review Programmes for the CPP™, PSP™ and PCI™, will commence in April 2010 with study groups in both Auckland and Wellington.
