To certify or not ro certify!

The CENVP program will ensure that talented, skilled and ethical environmental professionals are given due recognition in line with their professional counterparts from engineering, accounting, planning and architecture. Certification will provide a higher level of assurance to the community, employers, clients and professional associates. By certifying practitioners that meet high standards of professional and ethical conduct, the scheme is set to drive environmental practice to new levels

http://www.cenvp.org/process.php

In brief, to qualify for the CENVP, you will need:

1) an environment-related degree;

2) five years of relevant environmental experience over the past ten years;

3) three referees prepared to vouch for your skills, performance and professional conduct;

4) a signed statement of ethical conduct;

5) commitment to a minimum over two years of 50 hours of continued professional development; and

6) additional supporting evidence of claim including at least two referee reports

In addition to the Certified Safety Professional certification, BCSP administers certifications in safety and health for people working in technician and technologist positions. Some examples of occupational health and safety activities are making work site assessments to determine risks, potential hazards and controls, evaluating risks and hazard control measures, investigating incidents, maintaining and evaluating incident and loss records, and preparing emergency response plans.


BCSP operates these certifications through their Council on Certification of Health, Environmental and Safety Technologists, or CCHEST division. CCHEST, formerly the ABIH/BCSP Joint Committee, was started in 1985 and has operated the Occupational Health and Safety Technologist (OHST) program for over twenty years. In 1992, the Construction Divisions of the American Society of Safety Engineers (ASSE) and the National Safety Council (NSC) sought a similar credential for construction safety positions and for first-line supervisors in construction. From this initiative, the Construction Health and Safety Technician (CHST) program was started in 1994 and the Safety Trained Supervisor (STS) program in 1995. In 2007, CCHEST began offering an experience-based certification for loss control practitioners, the Certified Loss Control Specialist (CLCS). CCHEST became a division of BCSP at the end of 2008.

These certification programs offer recognition among safety and health practitioners, demonstrate competence to employers and others, increase employee confidence in occupational health and safety programs, help improve company profitability through reduced incidents and losses, and enhance the company image. The CCHEST certifications are viewed by many in safety practice as a stepping stone toward career advancement along the path toward attaining the CSP credential.
