What It Means To Be an INCOSE SEP
INCOSE Past President John Thomas has drafted a paper on what it truly means to be a Systems Engineering Professional as intended for INCOSE’s multi-level certification program. A copy of this paper can be downloaded below.
Advertising Your Certification
If you’d like to put the SEP logo in your email signature, review the guidelines for the use of the ESEP, CSEP, and ASEP designations. Usage must be consistent with INCOSE Policy COM-101 and the SEP Logo Guidance document.

Renew
ASEPs and CSEPs are required to renew their certifications through professional development and continuing education activities. More information on that is found here. ESEPs are expected to continue their professional development, as well, but are not required to submit documentation to INCOSE.
Learning and Sharing about INCOSE Certification
SEPs are the best promoters of systems engineering and INCOSE’s Certification Program. If you wish to give a presentation to your coworkers or at an INCOSE chapter meeting, you may find these resources helpful:
SEP Overview
This slide deck is suitable for sharing as introduction to the INCOSE Certification Program.
SEP Detailed Procedures
The INCOSE Systems Engineering Professional (SEP) Certification Program Definition and Requirements (CER-PROC-01) is the controlled document with more comprehensive information than the INCOSE website.
SEP Statistics
INCOSE posts updated graphs and statistics about the demographics of INCOSE SEPs.

Volunteer
INCOSE SEPs are a great source of help to the Certification Program as volunteers. If you are an ASEP, CSEP, or ESEP, INCOSE welcomes you to help write exam questions, review applications, or advise on the strategy of the Certification Program. You can apply for these positions through the INCOSE Volunteer Opportunity Board.
LinkedIn Groups
INCOSE has a group on LinkedIn for those interested in the Certification Program.
