Applications are accepted on a continual basis. To apply for certification, please access and complete the appropriate online application at the following link:
https://csphp.org/sphm-certification/certification-applications/

If you are unsure which certification level is most appropriate, a certification mentor can assist you. Please refer to our Mentor Program for more details.

Before submitting, please review your application carefully to ensure all required information and supporting documentation are included. Applications must be completed in their entirety, including acknowledgment of the attestation statement within the online submission process.

Once submitted, applications are valid for an eligibility period of one-year unless an applicant is issued an immediate denial letter.

All applicants will receive a confirmation email following the submission of their application. Please allow at least 3 business days for processing.  If you do not receive a confirmation email following 3 business days, please contact us immediately at info@csphp.org. Failure to do so may impact the ability of your application to proceed through the process.

If an applicant does not fulfill all requirements after receiving three (3) Requests for Additional Information (RAIs), or within one year of the application date—whichever occurs first—the application will be denied. The applicant will then be required to submit a new application.

Payment
All payments must be submitted with the application.

All fees are non-refundable.

Please read the Handbook prior to application submission.
