Is it time to renew your NASP certification? Just like any professional certification, your NASP certifications must be renewed occasionally. NASP certifications must be renewed every three years. You can renew your certification in one of several different ways:
*You can take the online exam without reviewing the course material.
*You can review the course material, and then take the exam.
*You can complete the next higher level professional certification. By earning the next higher certification, you automatically refresh all of your lower level certifications.
NASP certifications are an important piece of your professional credentials. Don’t let them lapse. Check the date on your certificates. Call a member services representative at 1-800-922-2219 to register for a refresher course.

40 hr. Safety Manager/Trainer Course – Classroom Version
Since the recession began employers have been reluctant to expend the funds to send their students off for a classroom course. So we stopped offering a classroom version of the Safety Manager/Trainer course and many of the potential students have taken the independent study version of it. But we’re not ignoring those of you who have called in and asked for the classroom version of the course. We’ve decided to offer it on a demand basis. If you want the 40 hr. Safety Manager/Trainer Course – Classroom Version just call in and put your name on the list. Every time we get 20 names on the list we’ll offer the classroom version of the course.
NASP Receives New Veterans Administration Rating
NASP has been working under a VA program that allowed qualified veterans to pay their own tuition, pass our test and then be reimbursed by the VA.
Recently the Alabama/Northern Florida VA region has helped NASP get “vendorized” for that region. That means vets in that region don’t have to pay upfront and the VA .will pay their full tuition. This should open the door to all regions. Contact you VA rep and have them send us the “Vendorization” forms and you can do the same thing
