CIW Associate is an entry level, vendor-neutral title endorsed by the Association of Internet Professionals (AIP) and the International Webmasters Association (IWA). The CIW Associate title identifies IT professionals who have achieved foundation-level webmaster skills, including basic knowledge of Internet technologies, network infrastructure, and Web authoring using HTML. The CIW Associate is also a starting point for more advanced titles, such as CIW Professional and Master CIW series.
As a CIW Associate, you will have the skills and knowledge needed to understand the intricacies of the Internet, the tools related to e-commerce, and how they all work together. Along with these skills come increased job opportunities and financial rewards. In fact, the DataMasters 2003 salary survey found that Internet developers with professional credentials average more than $80,000 per year! |

The Certified Internet Webmaster’s CIW Associate is an entry level, vendor-neutral, certification for IT professionals who have “foundational skills that include basic knowledge of Internet technologies, network infrastructure, and Web authoring using HTML.” The CIW Associate is also a starting point for more advanced certifications, such as the CIW Professional, and the Master CIW series.

The CIW Associate certification emerged in 2000, with the most recent version of the exam published in June of 2001. In terms of recertification, “CIW exams may be retired for various reasons, including release of a new exam series, changes to related certification programs, or determination by the IT industry that a job role has become obsolete. Once retired, the exam is no longer available at testing centers, although in some cases candidates can still apply credit for a retired exam version toward a multi-exam certification. CIW offers six months' prior notice for retirement of any exam so that interested candidates have time to prepare and take the exam while it is still available.”
To achieve the CIW Associate, a candidate must pass one CIW exam. In addition, the CIW program accepts the CompTIA i-Net+ as credit toward a CIW Associate certification.
