Courses Materials
Course instruction and certification exams focus largely on the CSI Project Delivery Practice Guide (PDPG) . It is a valuable asset for course and exam study, as well as person al practice. The Cook Inlet Chapter is attempting to offer a limited supply of the PDPG ’s for purchase by course attendants at a discounted rate. CSI Member retail pricing for the
manual is approximately $119 plus shipping and non—member pricing of $169 plus shipping. Please indicate below if you are interested in purchasing a personal copy . You may take the course without taking the exam.
Certification Exams
Registration forms to take the exam and exam fees for the CDT Certification Exam must be submitted separately to the
Institute office of CSI. You can get information and forms under the Certification tab at www.csiresources.org. NOTE
– EXAM REGISTRATION DEADLINES ARE INDEPENDENT OF PREPARATION COURSE DEADLINES, and
early registration discounts apply to exam only. Early Registration for the exam is from February 17th through
March 10th. The Standard Registration deadline for the May 4th – June 5th test window is April 18, 2021 and Final
registration is from April 19th – May 14, 2021. There is a substantial increase between the Early, Standard, and Final
Registration rates so you will want to register for the exam as early as possible.
Note: All CSI exams have moved to Computer Based Testing and are offered at computerized testing locations throughout
the U.S. and Canada twice a year. Candidates are cautioned to complete exam registration early. Confusion in the past
has resulted in class attendants becoming ineligible to sit for certification exams due to space limitations at exam testing
sites. For more information and brochures, visit the new CSI web site at www.csiresources.org and follow the links for
Certification, or call 1-800-689-2900.
