Full-time employed secretaries, experienced secretaries, college/university students and business educators are eligible to apply and take the CPS examinations.  To complete the certification, the student must provide verification of 2-4 years of work experience within 6 years of the acceptance date to take the exam.

Classes are taught in areas covered by the three-part examination, and the CPS examination is administered by the institute for Certification (IC), a department of the Professional Secretaries International (PSI).  The international version of the CPS examination is administered in May and November each year.  Northern Caribbean University is an examination centre.
