members to submit more than the maximum number of <strong>CPE</strong>s recommended by the selfstudy<br />

provider. Members should keep documentation of <strong>CPE</strong> hours submitted in the<br />

listed in any of the other categories.<br />

If members have done preparation work to obtain another professional certification which<br />

is not a certification from (<strong>ISC</strong>) 2® , <strong>and</strong> if the members have gained their knowledge in the<br />

field where the other certification is awarded, they are entitled to <strong>CPE</strong> credits for the<br />

preparation or self-study work they did to achieve the other professional certification. If<br />

would earn Group A credits. If the other certification is not related to the domains of<br />

members’ (<strong>ISC</strong>) 2 credential, they would earn Group B credits. <strong>CPE</strong> credits associated<br />

certification, but, for the time members spent in preparation for obtaining the non-(<strong>ISC</strong>) 2<br />

certification.<br />
