The purpose of this discussion is to familiarize the prospective candidate with the basic requirements for qualification to sit for the CMSP examination and to provide direction to preparing for that examination. A candidate may choose to prepare through a plan of self-study, or the candidate may choose to attend a specialized course of study.
