You must email your Information Assurance certificate to the DPAS Account Management team before your training certification expires.

• A. True
• B. Not Required If On File
• C. Not Applicable
• D. False

Answer: (D)

In DPAS, your Information Assurance certification is kept as part of your account record and the system manages expiration and renewal workflows. You’re not required to email the certificate to the Account Management team before the certification expires. The expected process is to keep the certificate current in DPAS—either by uploading the updated certificate through the self-service portal or by following the approved documentation submission process—so your record stays up to date automatically. Emailing the certificate ahead of expiration isn’t the mandated step you must take. If you ever can’t upload it yourself, you’d follow the designated support channel, but the general rule is to maintain the certificate in DPAS rather than sending it by email before it expires.
