CAP Preferred Employer (CPE)

CAP Preferred Employer status is offered to companies, or relevant departments within companies, who commit to prioritizing the hiring of CAP/aCAP certified professionals when sourcing operations research, data science or analytics candidates. These employers recognize that the CAP/aCAP certification is a tool for vetting prospective employees and recruiting and retaining top analytics talent. These CPEs also help current employees to become CAP certified in conjunction with this initiative. Encouraging employees to pursue their CAP certification creates new opportunities for their long-term success and provides new avenues for your organization’s analytics-based growth and success.

Certified Analytics Professionals are employed at Fortune 100 Companies, including American Express, Apple, Boeing, Capital One, Coca-Cola, Comcast, DuPont, Humana, IBM, JP Morgan Chase, Lockheed Martin, Principal, UPS, and more. We recognize that companies at this level have optimized hiring processes to find the right employee who is guaranteed to be able to perform the scope of work they were hired to do.
