Interview Process
Following review
of the application, the ASCSP may, at its discretion conduct an interview
with the candidate either in person or over the phone. Following successful completion of the interview process, the
candidate will be approved to take the Certified Member examination.
The Examination
The examination process will consist of two parts: Part I
100+ question multiple
choice exam covering - Technical issues
- Legal and tax issues
- Ethics and standards
Part II
Written exam to demonstrate
the applicant's ability to understand the complex issues associated with cost segregation studies, contractual issues
and duty of care.
The applicant will be required to answer two mandatory questions
plus three additional questions chosen from a group of five.
Grading
In order to have Part II of the exam graded by the testing committee, a passing grade of 80% for Part I of the exam
is required. A portion of the questions contained in Part I will be specifically designated as Certified level questions.
In the event that the applicant does not meet this requirement, but achieves an overall score of 75% or better, the
applicant may receive, at the sole discretion of the examining committee, a Senior member designation. Failure to
receive an overall score of at least 75% will require the applicant to take the Senior exam and receive a passing grade before
being eligible to retake the Certified exam.
