Who is a Certified Safety Professional?

A Certified Safety Professional (CSP) is an individual who is professionally trained and certified to handle matters concerning workplace safety. They are equipped to evaluate and prevent risks in diverse workplaces to create safer working areas for both employees and employers.

What is the difference between Associate Safety Professional and Certified Safety Professional?

ASP stands for Associate Safety Professional, which is ranked lower than Certified Safety Professional. An ASP can show basic knowledge of safety concepts but struggle to showcase practical safety knowledge. Those who seek to be truly seen as the Gold Standard of safety certification will have to progress to the CSP regardless of whether they wish to keep the ASP accreditation.
