The CPSA Advanced Level<\/a> is organized into training modules from the three competence areas of methodology, technology and communication. Each training module teaches specific competencies for which participants then receive corresponding credit points (e.g. 10 CP Technology and 20 CP Methodology). If you can collect a total of 70 credit points from all three competence areas, you may register for the CPSA-A examination. You will normally fulfill this requirement after attending three trainings. For the official certificate of attendance with proof of credit points, your attendance rate at each training must be at least 75%.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” ul_line_height=”1.8em” header_6_font_size=”23px” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” ul_line_height__hover_enabled=”on|desktop” ul_line_height__hover=”1.8em”]<\/p>\n To register for the CPSA Advanced Level exam, you must meet the following prerequisites:<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” header_6_font_size=”23px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n If you meet all the requirements, register directly with the recognized certification providers for the CPSA Advanced Level exam. You will then receive your exam paper. You will have three months to complete it. It will take about 40 hours of work and the solution must be documented. After your solution has been received by the certification provider on time, it will be reviewed by two examiners.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” header_6_font_size=”23px” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n In an oral defense you present your solution to the examiners. If it is confirmed that you meet all requirements and the examiners find your solution and defense to be good, you will receive the certificate “Certified Professional for Software Architecture – Advanced Level (CPSA-A\u00ae)”.
