Today I'm starting a journey to become a PCI Professional (PCIP), and I'll be periodically updating the status of this journey on the 7MS forums.

You don't need to be a QSA to get a PCIP, but you do need "2 years in IT or payments related background to have your application approved."

The PCIP certification gives you (and I'm quoting from the PCI Web site):

Principles of PCI DSS, PA-DSS, PCI PTS, and PCI P2PE Standards
Understanding of PCI DSS requirements and intent
Overview of basic payment industry terminology
Understanding the transaction flow
Implementing a risk-based prioritized approach
Appropriate uses of compensating controls
Working with third-parties and service providers
How and when to use Self-Assessment Questionnaires (SAQs)
Recognizing how new technologies affect the PCI (e.g. virtualization, tokenization, mobile, cloud)

The test costs + exam for a non-participating organization (like 7MS) is $2,500. You also have to re-up every 3 years for $260 (yay, another thing to have to pay for regularly).

In the miscellany department:
