GUIDANCE ON QSA 2nd INDUSTRY CERTIFICATION

Due to the mass closure of testing centers in many countries, the Council recognizes QSAs due to requalify before 30 June, 2020 may not be able to complete exams associated with industry certifications ahead of their requalification date. The Council has developed a temporary process for existing QSAs who, for COVID-19 related reasons, cannot meet the requirement to hold two industry certifications. For any questions regarding this temporary process, please email the QSA program manager at qsa@pcisecuritystandards.org.
