Certified Modeling & Simulation Professional (CMSP) (Room S331C)

01 Dec 17
8:00 AM - 12:00 PM
Speaker(s): Mikel Petty
This workshop will provide an overview of the Certified Modeling & Simulation Professional (CMSP) certification program, with a particular focus on preparing prospective applicants to take the CMSP exam. The workshop will cover the application and examination process (education/ work experience requirements, application fees, how the exam is administered, etc.), in addition to an in-depth review of the new CMSP Exam Topic Outline. The CMSP exam has been completely revised and refined over the past two years, and new applicants will now have a choice of two tracks — Technical and User/Manager — and will take an entirely new exam. The workshop will be taught by charter/pioneer CMSPs who have been involved in oversight of the CMSP program and/or creation/revision of the CMSP exam. The workshop will not by itself prepare applicants to take the exam, but will provide a thorough overview of exam content and a blueprint for further self-study.
