Certification - ASTD

Here is an email I got from the American Society for Training and Development about their certification program. Thought I'd pass it on.

Dear Future CPLP Candidate,

Due to unexpected demand, the ASTD Certification Institute (ASTD CI) has opened a new CPLP™ (Certified Professional in Learning and Performance™) testing window in October 2006. Now you have an additional opportunity to get certified in 2006—either sit for the new testing window or select one of the few remaining seats for the November window.

If you have at least 3 years of industry experience and the desire to prove your value, advance your career, and demonstrate your commitment to workplace learning and performance, the CPLP™ is for you. Consisting of both a knowledge-based exam and the submission of a work product reviewed by a panel of experts, this credential can enhance your earning potential and broaden your career opportunities.

If you’re interested in differentiating yourself in this competitive job market, your resume must include the CPLP™ designation. Registration is on a first-come, first-served basis and is open now. The ASTD CI suggests a study time of at least ninety (90) days. The cost for participating in the certification program is $750 for ASTD members and $950 for nonmembers.

Register now for the CPLP™. Click here to begin the process.

Thank you for your time and commitment to building the profession.

Sincerely,
The ASTD CI
