Professional Certification of Software Engineers: The CSDP Program

J. Fernando Naveda, Stephen B. Seidman

Abstract

There's a generally accepted maxim in the software industry: a well-managed software organization, staffed by qualified software engineering professionals in a mature software engineering environment, can repeatedly deliver software systems that meet their requirements, on time and within budget. But what does it mean to be professionally qualified? The IEEE Computer Society's Certified Software Development Professional program offers a solid path to certification that helps to establish software engineering professionals' credentials.
