The Case for Certification

The CPLP® certification program is administered by the American Society for Training and Development Certification Institute (ASTD CI). ASTD CI accredits individuals working in the workplace learning & performance industry.

Certification enhances professional credibility by signaling to current and potential employers that you possess a solid foundation of experience and education as a learning & performance professional. It lets organizations know that you are committed to making a positive impact on their bottom-line results.

CPLP^® Certification Highlights

• Professional Standard: Is recognized as the professional standard for learning & performance by the U.S. Department of Labor.
• Competitive Advantage: Helps individuals differentiate themselves and stand out in a competitive job market.
• Ongoing Professional Development: Displays dedication to the profession of learning & performance, ongoing learning, and professional development
• Mastery: Certification assesses individuals against a professional standard, and successful attainment of CPLP^® certification indicates mastery of professional competencies across multiple areas of expertise.
