I'd be interested to get Summit 7's take on the RPA training. Outside of what is listed in on the Cyber AB site, I can't find any commentary on the RPA. How does it compare to the CCP in terms of being an avenue for advising on organization on the implementation of controls & practices based on requirements identified in NIST SP 800-171A assessment objectives. RPA investment may be more financially feasible for smaller defense contractors versus CCP for internal CMMC compliance work.
As stated in the video, the RP/ RP-A training does present a cost effective method for an OSA/OSC to increase awareness of the CMMC program and its requirements. However, it should not be the only training they depend upon when picking a person (internally or externally) to lead their CMMC certification efforts.
@@Summit7 Thank you for your quick reply. I'm asking specifically about RPA training (and its subsequent value to an organization), as it appears to have significantly more depth than the RP training. I do not believe the RP training & RPA training should be lumped in the same category - which is why I mentioned that there seems to be little to no commentary dedicated to evaluating its value and potential place in an OSA/OSC CMMC certification journey.
Wow! Junkyard! Wasting money! You sure are insulting the RP/RPA community. I agree that the RP/RPA training needs MUCH improvement. The initial RP training was so bad they had to do RPA which was only a little better. The material is there so you get out of it what you put in time wise. You are totally missing the whole purpose of the two tracks: consulting vs assessing. RPs are the doers ... As an RPA I help clients implement their security. Setup AV, setup auditing, configure firewalls, etc. Look on CyberAB. The CCP is on the assessment side. Doers are not assessors. Recommend you redo this video. The RP/RPA is a role in the community. Just because the training needs improved its bad taste to insult all of us.
The intent of this video was to highlight the beneficial elements of the CCP training in different scenarios applicable to OSAs/OSCs & ESPs/MSPs to better help them make informed decisions on personnel and services.

Well put Scott, makes me wonder why so much misinformation on the RP/RPA side.
