About Board of Canadian Registered Safety Professionals (BCRSP)

The Board of Canadian Registered Safety Professionals (formerly the Association for Canadian Registered Safety Professionals) is a public interest, not-for-profit association whose certificants are dedicated to the principles of health and safety as a profession in Canada. On February 10, 1976 a newly designated Canadian Corporation was formed for the purpose of certifying qualified safety practitioners as Canadian Registered Safety Professionals (CRSP)®. With the appointment of the first Board of Governors, comprised of leading professionals from a cross-section of safety disciplines, the certification of safety professionals became a reality through the new organisation. The CRSP® certification is now a widely accepted form of recognition by industry and government in Canada. Many employers require the CRSP® certification in order to qualify for a safety position. It also allows the BCRSP to ensure that the highest standards of excellence and professionalism are maintained at all times and by all certificants. The CRSP® certification process requires individuals to meet qualification standards, including education and experience requirements, pass the CRSP® Examination, and stay up to date through a continuous professional development process. The CRST certification was introduced in 2018 to support the evolving needs of industry. The CRST certification process requires individuals to meet qualification standards, including education and experience requirements, pass the CRST Examination, and stay up to date through a continuous professional development process. In 2005, the CRSP® certification process achieved accreditation to ISO/IEC 17024 by the Standards Council of Canada.
