BIG CHANGES TO THE CSEP!
The ISES Certification Committee is proud to announce the following enhancements to the CSEP (Certified Special Event Professional) Exam application process:
- Applicants no longer have to purchase a CSEP Exam Instruction Manual. All exam information, requirements, and the exam application are accessible online at any time on the new ISES website, on the CSEP web pages for free.
- The CSEP candidate’s event management knowledge, skills, and abilities are tested through our rigorous, industry respected exam, and therefore candidates are no longer required to provide “points” as part of the application process. However, the candidates are still required to still show proof that they are actively employed in the special events industry for a minimum of three (3) years full time.
- Letters of recommendation are no longer required as part of the application process.
- Once a new candidate is ready to sit for the exam, only one payment is required as opposed to three separate fees. Candidates will be charged a one time $600.00 USD fee.
- The exam retake fee has been reduced to $200.00 USD.
- A new CSEP website has been created so candidates and current CSEPs will have access to simple step-by-step exam application, exam and CSEP recertification procedures.
- The one (1) year exam time limitation for approved CSEP candidates has been eliminated. Candidates can sit for the exam as soon as they feel prepared to do so
