    Hi Shiv, 

    Thanks for your interest in the CAP!  I earned mine about 8 years ago and have found it incredibly valuable.  I recall the pre-requisites include a relevant degree, some work experience,  evidence of good soft skills and a pledge to follow the INFORMS Ethical Guidelines.  What I love most about the CAP is that is is really focused on the areas of analytics most essential to success, that is the 7 domains.  It has been well worth the investment to me!
