Prerequisites and procedure for the CPSA-A exam

Step 1: Collect 70 credit points from the three competency areas

Das CPSA Advanced Level ist durch Trainingsmodule aus den drei Kompetenzbereichen Methodik, Technik und Kommunikation aufgebaut. Jedes Trainingsmodul vermittelt bestimmte Kompetenzen für die Teilnehmer:innen dann entsprechende Credit Points erhalten (z.B. 10 CP Technik und 20 CP Methodik). Wenn Sie insgesamt 70 Credit Points aus allen drei Kompetenzbereichen vorweisen können, dürfen Sie sich zur CPSA-A Prüfung anmelden. Diese Voraussetzung erfüllen Sie in der Regel nach drei besuchten Trainings. Für die offizielle Teilnahmebestätigung mit dem Nachweis über die Credit Points muss Ihre Präsenzquote bei jedem Training mindestens 75% betragen.

Step 2: Check if you meet all the requirements

To register for the CPSA Advanced Level exam, you must meet the following requirements:

  • Completed certification as a Certified Professional for Software Architecture – Foundation Level (CPSA F®)
  • At least 3 years of full-time professional experience in the IT industry and description of involvement in the design and development of at least two IT systems
  • At least 70 CP from the competency areas of the CPSA-A Level
  • Confidentiality agreement regarding the CPSA-A exam task
Step 3: Completing the exam task

If you meet all the requirements, register directly with the recognized certification bodies for the CPSA Advanced Level exam. You will then receive your exam task. You have three months to complete it. The workload is around 40 hours and the solution must be documented. Once your solution has been received by the certification body on time, it will be examined by two examiners.

Step 4: Oral defense of your solution

In an oral defense, you present your solution to the examiners. If it is then confirmed that you meet all the requirements and the examiners find your elaboration and defense to be good, you will receive the certificate for Certified Professional for Software Architecture – Advanced Level (CPSA-A®). The entire exam can be taken in German or English.

The completed certification as a Certified Professional for Software Architecture – Advanced Level (CPSA-A®) is not a professional qualification, but an internationally recognized proof of your advanced skills and knowledge in the field of software architecture.
