Last Chance to Register for C.P.M.!

Make your plans now to register for your C.P.M. Exams before the final registration deadline of December 31, 2008. Even though the renowned C.P.M. will be moving into recertification-only status until January 2013, you must register for the exams by December 31, 2008. Your exam registration is valid for one (1) year from the date you register. Order the study materials you need now, as some items are only available while quantities last. Once you register with ISM, make sure to promptly schedule your exams to allow time for re-taking any modules in 2008. Any exams taken in 2009 and not passed will not be eligible for re-testing since ISM is not accepting any new test registrations in 2009. For more information go to the Education tab above left.
