13. © 2010, UMBC Training Centers, LLC UMBC Recommended Pathway for DoD 8570.1

14. DoD 8570.1 Rationale for UMBC TC Recommended Certification Pathway to obtain complete certification from entry level to IASAE is as follows: It relies on only five (5) certifications (A+, Network+, Security+, CEH, CISSP) to cover all but two of the cells in the 8570 Certification Table. Only one additional certification (ISSAM/ISSEP/ISSAP) (for which the others are pre-requisite) is required to satisfy the remaining two cells (IASAE and CND SP Manager) © 2010, UMBC Training Centers, LLC

15. UMBC TC Recommended Certification Pathway Most of the individual certifications satisfy several categories and/or levels on the 8570 Certification Table. These 5 certifications are the most widely recognized by industry and government, and therefore the most widely sought after by employees to advance their careers. These 5 certifications offer corporations the best opportunity to achieve economies of scale, significantly lower costs, and reduce the time required to achieve broad certification percentage requirements. © 2010, UMBC Training Centers, LLC
