Continuing Professional Education

Our CPE Days, run by Axis Communications, are designed to help security professionals maintain their certifications, stay current, and continue building professional credibility — without it feeling like a chore.

Think of them as structured “lunch and learn” days with substance.

These sessions allow members to earn Continuing Professional Education (CPE) credits required to maintain certifications such as:

  • ASIS International certifications including

    • Certified Protection Professional (CPP)

    • Physical Security Professional (PSP)

    • Associate Protection Professional (APP)

    • Professional Certified Investigator (PCI)

What Are CPE Days?

CPE Days are structured professional development sessions delivered by experienced practitioners, subject-matter experts, and industry leaders.

They are designed to:

  • Support certification maintenance requirements

  • Deepen knowledge in emerging and evolving risk areas

  • Provide practical insights you can apply immediately

  • Offer structured learning in a focused, time-efficient format

Sessions are practical, discussion-led, and grounded in real-world application

Who Are They For?

  • ASIS certified members maintaining CPP, PSP, APP or PCI credentials

  • Members working towards certification

  • Security professionals committed to structured professional development

Priority spaces are given to certified members, as the primary purpose is to support accreditation maintenance.

Where space allows, non-certified members may also attend.

What to Expect on the Day

Our CPE Days typically include:

  • Expert-led presentations

  • Case study analysis

  • Interactive Q&A

  • Peer discussion

  • Practical takeaways

Topics vary, but may include:

  • Emerging threat trends

  • AI and security implications

  • Physical security innovations

  • Crisis leadership

  • Regulatory updates

  • Risk and resilience strategy

Sessions are designed to be high-value, concise, and relevant — closer to a focused executive briefing than a large-scale conference.

Why We Run CPE Days

Professional accreditation is not just a badge — it’s a commitment to standards, ethics, and continuous improvement.

CPE Days exist to:

  • Support members in maintaining those standards

  • Encourage ongoing professional growth

  • Create space for meaningful industry dialogue

  • Raise the bar collectively

Security evolves. So should we.
