Experience Waiver Question

merkartur

Hi folks!

I'm new to this forum. I tried to dig around for my question and didn't find any answer.
I've passed the CISSP exam and now I have to submit my endorsement.
I have the endorser that vouched for me and my form is already signed.
The only problem is that I lack around 6 month of experience.
I have my MCSA that I can waive for another year of experience and then I will meet all the requirements.
The question is:
Can I use the waiver with endorser? If yes, how do I do it?
All that I found at ISC2 site is that a waiver is included in the endorsement assistance form.
Have anybody had this problem in the past?

Thank You

P.S. Sorry for my English, I'm not a native English speaker and writer

You can only waive one year of experience either a degree or certain certs can be used. If you don't have 4 years of infosec experience in two domains then you will need to go the associates of ISC2 route until you have the requisite experience.

When you submit your application along with your resume; specify which domains falls under which experience. list your certification and specify that MCSA falls under the "1 year waiver" something like:

Certification:

- MCSA (1 year Waiver).

I didnt do that for Security but to make it easier for them it should work , also scan and attach your MCSA certificate as they will require a copy to verify it. (I forgat to scan it , but they sent me an email asking for it so its all cool).

Hope this helps.

Would the transcript do the job or it's only cert scan?

Thank You

Welcome to the club - I'm waiting for endorsement acceptance too. I expect to hear something this week. Currently it seems to be taking about three weeks after submission of endorsement papers.
