electronic document systems industry.

2. Show a committment to continuous learning by
earning 100 education credits -- such as from
college, seminars, professional courses or other
certifications.

3. Accept the EDP Code of Ethics.

4. Complete the application and pay the application
fee of $50.

5. You'll be assigned an EDP mentor to guide you
through the process.

6. Submit a portfolio of 3 work samples to demonstrate
your knowledge in the field.

7. Pay the Portfolio fee of $300.

8. All this must be done by June 1 of any given year.

9. You'll receive a decision by August 15.

10. To retain your EDP certification, you must get
recertified over five-year cycles. This is done by
taking and giving additional education.

If you are in the electronic document systems industry,
you'll want to get your EDP certification.
