Does my reference have to be a SEP?

References must know what SE is, but they don't have to be systems engineers.

Checking Certification Status Online

INCOSE Certification status is available on the INCOSE website.

Where can I get a CSEP polo shirt or jacket?

Impress your friends by bringing a SEP logo towel to the beach! Or, get a SEP logo polo shirt for wearing at work. Purchase from the Lands End online store.

Is the exam offered only in English?

Many of INCOSE's Certification candidates come from countries where English is not the first language they learn.
