All (ISC)2 credential holders participating in this year’s ISC West qualifying educational sessions, workshops and learning labs can earn CPE credits toward the (ISC)2 credentials, including the Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP) and the Systems Security Certified Practitioner (SSCP).

“The SIA Education@ISC West program offers more than 60 education sessions appealing to diverse audiences—including dealers, integrators, practitioners and IT professionals.
