What Is CAPx at Summit?

Earning your CAP is more than passing a test — it’s a professional milestone. CAPx is about joining a global community of credentialed administrative professionals who have demonstrated their expertise and commitment to the field.


Looking for a supportive way to prepare for and take your exam? The CAP Summit Experience (CAPx) offers candidates a unique opportunity to prepare for and sit for the CAP exam on-site before IAAP’s yearly Summit (no conference registration required!). With guided preparation, peer support, and a professional testing environment, it’s designed to build confidence and set you up for success.
