In September 2005, after HP e3000 and MPE/iX certifications expired, we heard from both customers and partners
that these certifications continue to be important in the conduct of their
business. After consideration of this feedback, we'd like to extend our welcome back into the
HP Certified Professional Program. We hope that all eligible individuals will
take advantage of the many opportunities offered by the Program.
For e3000 specialists
If you held the HP e3000 Technical Certification, your title is now:
- Accredited Presales Professional (APP) -- HP e3000 Technical Certification.
This credential is considered to be "inactive,"
which means that while it is no longer attainable by new candidates, it
continues to be recognized as part of the HP Certified Professional Program and
remains valid toward program benefits. You are not obligated to upgrade your
certification at this time, but we encourage you to further your knowledge and update your
skills by pursuing an active credential. Your skills and knowledge give you the
foundation to pursue the Accredited
Presales Professional (APP) - HP Enterprise Solutions credential, the
requirements for which can be found here.
For MPE/iX specialists
If you held the MPE/iX System Administration Certification, your title is now:
- Certified Systems Administrator (CSA) - MPE/iX System Administration.
This credential is also considered to be "inactive," which means that while
it is no longer attainable by new candidates, it continues to be recognized as
part of the HP Certified Professional Program and remains valid toward program
benefits. You are not obligated to upgrade your certification at this time, but
we encourage you to further your knowledge and update your skills by pursuing an active credential.
Your skills and knowledge give you the foundation to pursue the Certified Systems Administrator (CSA) -
HP-UX v11 credential, the requirements for which can be found
here.
We encourage you to maximize the return on investment you have already made in
your knowledge of HP technologies. With a small effort toward an active credential,
you can update and validate your skills, protect your career path, and increase
your business opportunities.
Next steps
- Use your student/member ID to complete your transfer back into our Program and access your benefits as an HP Certified Professional

your benefits and certification history will be hosted. Once your account is
created, you will be asked to agree to our Terms and Conditions/Confidential
Disclosure Agreement. Please allow 2-3 days of when your login account
has been created for you to view your certification history and access your
benefits.
- An electronic welcome letter will automatically be sent to you from the Americas
HP Certified Professional Program office. It includes detailed information on
your benefits as part of the Americas' region and provides useful Program
links.
- In approximately 4-6 weeks you will be mailed a certificate showing your new credential title.
And that's it! Once you have completed these steps, you'll once again have access to all the member benefits afforded under your credential.
