Does ASIS include other organizations credentials when listing speakers?
Yes. ASIS includes other organizations’ credentials when listing speakers in promotional materials for our educational programs and annual Seminar. Although the Seminar’s educational sessions are presented by a high preponderance of CPPs® and those with other ASIS credentials, we do recognize other security or professional designations. We believe that security-related credentials enhance the authority of the speaker and help attract attendees to a session because of the demonstrated competence that the credential implies. ASIS also includes information in narrative form about other credentials earned when a member submits that information to Dynamics, our bi-monthly newsletter. With regard to listing other certifications in the ASIS membership directory, we include only our own credentials, as there is no way to validate the accuracy of the information. We have begun, however, to collect information about non-ASIS certifications on our membership application.
