About the ISA Exam

The Information Systems department at Brigham Young University Hawaii has adopted the ISA exam as part of its educational assessment efforts.

The Information Systems Analyst (ISA) Exam is a product of CCER, the Center for Computing Education Research. CCER is a division of the ICCP Education Foundation, which is a part of ICCP, the Institute for the Certification of Computing Professionals.

BYUH Preparation Instructions

This instructional handout (3p pdf) will help you set up your account so you can take the ISA Exam. This takes a few minutes and must be done before the administrator can authorize you to take the exam. You should do this before the day of the exam, so it does not cut into your test-taking time.

Create Your ISA Testing Account

If you already created an account, but you forgot your password, see Bro Colton. He can get your password back for you.

*** Note: you are not permitted to create more than one ISA account. One reason is that it would allow you to take the test more than once in a 30-day period. Another is that we need all of your scores to be under the same account. If you forgot your password or the email address you used to create your first account, please contact Bro Colton to get your old information. Then log in and update things that might have changed, such as your email address or last name. ***

To create an account, visit http://iseducation.org/. Find the heading that says ``Don't have a CCER account?'' and click on the link to create an account.

Please capitalize your name properly. Not "john doe" but "John Doe."

If you have not graduated from BYUH, then your proper educational category is "Undergraduate in progress" (not "Undergraduate complete".) Undergraduate means the first four years of college. After that is called graduate school (for a PhD or Masters).

After your account is created, there is a separate process where a faculty member must review your account and mark it as validated. If we see that you already have an account, we are not allowed to validate the new one. We have to delete it. You must use the old one.
