BCSP’s examCORE

The CSP is considered the “gold-standard” of safety and health credentials. Safety at this level is virtually in every industry including petroleum exploration, production and refining, manufacturing, construction, healthcare, and insurance. A CSP’s professional time is spent on safety management systems, occupational health and ergonomics, emergency response and preparedness, fire prevention and protection, environmental management, and security responsibilities.

Safety Management Specialists have the management skills required for the safe operation of a business. These duties can be full- or part-time and include defining and utilizing an organization’s safety management system, risk management, incident investigation, emergency preparedness, and the identification of the business case for safety. An SMS certified professional also maintains their current knowledge of safety, health and environmental (SH&E) concepts and advances the safety and health profession.

The ASP is a mid-level certification that fulfills the credential requirement leading to the CSP. An ASP may hold positions at the technical level or program management level and may directly supervise employees.

ASP/CSP examCORE Connect combines the examCORE ASP and CSP into one convenient and cost-effective program. Prepare the right way for both the ASP and CSP exams.

The Occupational Hygiene and Safety Technician certification is for those who perform occupational hygiene and safety activities for their job duties, including incident investigation, hazard control measures, preparing emergency response plans, and more. An OHST certified safety professional may use their certification to advance their career.

The CHST is a safety certification for individuals who work in the construction craft, or are construction safety specialists. Many construction safety professionals use the CHST as a stepping-stone to greater roles in safety and health and, in some cases, to the Certified Safety Professional (CSP) certification.
