Go to the CIOL website and find a course provider: Jun 1, 2014

http://www.iol.org.uk/qualifications/CentresProviders/DPSICentres.pdf

These courses are invaluable, as pass rates are between 15%-20%.

Good luck.

How long has the DPI been around? Aug 31, 2016

Can anyone tell me how long the DPI has existed as a qualification? Was it initially covered by the DPSI?
