If a person applying for the certificate wants to have other trainings credited, it is necessary to have the equivalence of these trainings with the certification program stated. For stating this equivalence, a separate written application will have to be filed. A presentation of the trainings completed and a comparison with the requirements placed by the certification program (IS-Refresher) will have to be enclosed to this application. Further the required time of practical experience has been demonstrated.

A qualification check is carried out to verify conformity with regard to the certification program and the up-to-dateness of the references provided by the certificate applicant. This consists of an oral technical discussion of 30 to 60 minutes duration and is conducted by an evaluator. The defined training contents according to the certification program (IS-Refresher) are used as a basis. Personal certificates in accordance with the ISO 27000 group of standards serve as proof of competence that the qualification is constantly maintained through professional practice and further training.
