The CWSP certification is awarded to candidates who pass the CWSP exam and who also hold the CWNA certification. The CWNA certification is a prerequisite to earning the CWSP certification; however, the CWNA and CWSP exams may be taken in any order though it is recommended that you take the CWNA exam first.[1]

CWSP requirements

This certification covers a wide range of security areas. These include detecting attacks, wireless analysis, policy, monitoring and solutions.[2]

Recertification

The CWSP certification is valid for three years.[3] The certification may be renewed by retaking the CWSP exam or by advancing on to CWNE which is also valid for 3 years.[3]
