The internationally recognised Geographic Information Systems Professional (Asia Pacific) (GISP-AP) Certification informs the general public and other professionals that your skills and expertise in spatial information and cartography are recognised at the highest level.
The certification process requires a professional to initially demonstrate that an advanced level of expertise has been achieved, including:

- achievement of further relevant professional experience
- contributions to the profession.
Additionally a GISP-AP is a certified Geographic Information Systems Professional who has been assessed as meeting the minimum standards for ethical conduct and professional practice, as defined by the program (refer to the GISP-AP Code of Ethics and Rules of Conduct).
Both Geospatial Council members and non-members are eligible to apply for GISP-AP Certification. Certificate holders are required to re-certify every five years in order to maintain certification.
