ISP Certification-The Industrial Security Professional Exam Manual will both help prepare you for the test and provide career enhancing training to best meet the needs of our government security specialists and industrial security professionals.
Our study method can help with two main problem areas:

Time Limit: One of the ongoing lessons learned involved many not completing the test before it timed out. Fortunately, our practice tests provide a great opportunity to study and become familiar with the NISPOM.

Knowledge Base: A great example concerns one of the most challenging portions for many; Chapter 8. No one can know the entire NISPOM cover to cover. However, rehearsal with the NISPOM will increase your chances of passing the exam, no matter what your strengths and weaknesses.

This is an incredible resource for ISP Certification and any other security training.

5.0 out of 5 stars So You Think You Know It All?, November 18, 2008

This review is from: ISP Certification-The Industrial Security Professional Exam Manual or How to Prepare for and Pass the Industrial Security Professional Certification Exam (Paperback)

Like many seasoned industrial security representatives, I feel like I know it all. I have been in this industry almost 25 years; I know where to look for answers, and I have my contacts. But one day it occurred to me just how much has changed during my career - enter the Internet, enter computer based training, enter instant security clearances (Interims), enter the JPAS/e-QIP interface, enter diminished contact with my cleared employees and visitors. Admitting that the contact with my cleared employees is not as intimate as it used to have to be, somehow I felt that I was loosing touch with my own skill set because of it. Jeffrey Bennett's book is very insightful into our industry, for he works with and supports, and motivates, this industry. You should consider buying the ISP Certification - The Industrial Security Professional Exam Manual, and spend 30 minutes with it each evening after work. Reinvigorate yourself. Give your imagination and professional growth some quiet stimulation. Remember. Refresh yourself. The best security education dollar you can spend, and not even leave home.

This review is from: ISP Certification-The Industrial Security Professional Exam Manual or How to Prepare for and Pass the Industrial Security Professional Certification Exam (Paperback)

After receiving this book, I quickly skimmed through it prior to sitting down for a close study. My initial reaction was to wonder just how much information I could learn based on the fact that most of the book was dedicated to practice tests. When I finally took the time to sit down and read it, I was surprised at just how much information it contains. The book tells you how to prepare, to include learning all security disciplines, how to manage your time, and how to study the NISPOM. The practice tests are a great opportunity to time yourself, and help to identify areas of weakness. I truly recommend this book for anyone considering the ISP Certification... it is a great tool to have!
