ANAB Accreditation for CSD and MSP (Round 2)

Photo-6

The purposes of Certified Safety Director (CSD) and Master Safety Professional (MSP) programs are to establish international standards for certification in the workplace safety profession, to provide recognition of qualified individuals, and to afford a guarantee to employers that certified personnel have attained stated education and experience qualifications.

To accomplish this, we are having the CSD and MSP accredited by ANAB under the ISO/IEC 17024 standard. We are progressing nicely through the year-long process, and now we are looking for current CSMs, CSDs, and LSPs to sit for our PILOT EXAMs in June for the accredited version of the CSD and MSP.

How does it work?

To register for the exam, simply complete the application form and submit payment. Since the exam isn’t until June you have time to prepare. The test is only $95 (for either CSD or MSP – a mere fraction of the future cost) and it includes the prep course study guide! The prep course isn’t required but highly recommended to study for the exam.

After completing the registration, you will receive confirmation from NASP. In May, Scantron (the 3rd party proctor) will contact all registrants to schedule your pilot exam in June at the testing location nearest you.
