Keith A. Walsh has completed all requirements for certification as a Certified Safety Professional (CSP).
This highly respected certification is awarded to individuals who meet academic standards, satisfy professional safety experience requirements, and have passed two rigorous examinations.
The examinations cover engineering and management aspects of safety, applied sciences, legal and regulatory matters, professional affairs, and other safety-related topics.
Certified Safety Professionals specialize in protecting workers, the public, property, and the environment by identifying, evaluation, and controlling hazards.
The CSP directs safety programs at a corporate level to reduce risk and loss.
Steven Schoolcraft, BCSP Examination Director, said, “Becoming a CSP elevates a safety professional to the top of his or her field.”
The Board of Certified Safety Professionals, governed by 13 directors with seven membership organizations, establishes standards for and verifies minimum competency in professional safety practice.
BCSP also evaluates CSPs for compliance with re-certification requirements. Since 1969, almost 20,000 individuals have achieved the Certified Safety Professional certification.
Currently, more than 11,000 hold the CSP. BCSP is a nationally accredited, non-profit corporation chartered in Illinois, with headquarters in Savoy. More information about BCSP, the CSP and professional safety practice is available at www.bcsp.org.
