CDMP Exams at Enterprise Data World 2013 in San Diego

Pat Cupoli will again be leading a CDMP Exam Prep class at Enterprise Data World.  It will be held on Sunday, April 28th in San Diego, and pre-registration was required.  There will also be several opportunities for conference attendees to take exams to get certified at the conference.

Here's a rundown of the schedule:


You may take an exam of choice during any of these open exam sessions. Three exams are required for the CDMP.
 

Sunday April 28    6:00 pm – 7: 30 pm
Tuesday April 30   4:00 pm – 5:30 pm
Wednesday May 1 1:00 pm – 2:30 pm
Wednesday May 1 5:30 pm – 7:00 pm



As an added bonus at Enterprise Data World 2013, all exam candidates can take the exams on a “pay if you pass” basis. ICCP's 2013 DAMA member rate is $285 for each exam ($350 for non-members), paid only if you pass at 50% correct or better.


Just drop-in during any of these times.  The location of exams will be in the schedule and posted at the conference.  On-site registration and payment can be handled at the time of the exam. 


YOU WILL NEED TO BRING YOUR OWN WINDOWS LAPTOP. The exams run off a USB drive. Make sure your corporate laptop does not have encrypted USB drives. If you are not sure, check by saving a file to a USB on that laptop and opening the file afterwards.

More details can be found at the DataVersity Website for EDW13.  


Celebrating Forty Years of... Providing the Standard in IT Certification

A Dinner celebrating ICCP's 40th anniversary will be held on Saturday, May 4th at the Hotel del Coronado on Coronado Island in San Diego. All ICCP holders and their guests are welcome. 

We will recognize two new Fellows who have contributed to ICCP and to professionalism in general: Dr. Lynn McKell and Fred Harris, one of the founders of the ICCP.
During the evening we will be showing pictures of board members, office workers, and ICCP certificate holders from the early days. A few members who have been with us from those days will share their memories of that time and the founding activities. There will be a cocktail hour at 6 pm and dinner at 7pm. Past and present board members will be in attendance to reminisce and reflect upon the ICCP and what it has meant to them.

If you are in San Diego for any reason or are living in the area, consider joining us. If you are planning to attend Enterprise Data World, consider extending your stay to the weekend and celebrating with us.

To reserve email office2@iccp.org or call the ICCP office at 800-843-8227. The dinner is $75/person. The location is: Hotel del Coronado, 1500 Orange Ave., Coronado (San Diego), CA92118 http://www.hoteldel.com/
