Booz Allen Hamilton (NYSE: BAH), a leading strategy and technology solutions firm, renewed an agreement with the International Council on Systems Engineering (INCOSE), a move that will support expansion of INCOSE professional certifications for qualified systems engineers.

"Our renewal of the certification agreement with INCOSE demonstrates Booz Allen's continued commitment to be a world leader in the application of systems engineering and to deliver high quality, innovative results to our clients," said Troy Peterson, Booz Allen Fellow and Chief Engineer who established the initial agreement with INCOSE in 2009. "Booz Allen is known as a strong supporter of INCOSE and its certification program as shown by our leadership in having more certified Systems Engineering Professionals (SEPs) than any other organization worldwide for more than six years." 

INCOSE's certification program provides a formal method, and a baseline, for recognizing the knowledge and experience of systems engineers at different stages in their careers. INCOSE's comprehensive certification program aligns with a systems engineer's typical career progression: Associate Systems Engineering Professional (ASEP), Certified Systems Engineering Professional (CSEP), and Expert Systems Engineering Professional (ESEP). These multiple levels of certification also help provide guidance to junior engineers as they map their paths to becoming technical leaders.
