There are the three basic phases of getting CSIA Certified.
Getting CSIA Certified can be daunting, but getting started is actually pretty straightforward. Here are the three main phases.
Only integrator members are eligible for CSIA Certification. If you aren’t a member of CSIA, become one today! Once your company becomes a member, you will receive additional information, including access to a trove of documents that will help your company learn and incorporate the best practices for managing a system integration firm and prepare for the certification audit.
Review the criteria and resources to prepare for your audit. (Documents are available to CSIA members only.)
When you are ready to schedule an audit for certification (or renewal) the first step is to complete the Certification Application. Once you submit the application, CSIA staff will guide you through the next steps.
It’s best to start the process several months prior to the planned audit date to allow enough time to complete paperwork and finalize arrangements with the auditor.
That’s it! If you have any questions, let CSIA staff know. There are lots of resources to help you and your team successfully manage the process.
From branding to succession planning, CSIA Best Practices and Benchmarks is a comprehensive, thoroughly vetted manual to help you build a better business. See for yourself!
