Potentially eligible programs
Each example names the published pathway whose scope could cover it. Whether a specific program is eligible is assessed individually.
How applicability is assessed
- Describe what you operate. The program, credential, education offering or system — not just your sector.
- CHSPS confirms pathway and scope in writing. The free eligibility review records exactly what would be reviewed and what is excluded.
- Only an independent decision creates accreditation. Listing here, inquiry, payment or evidence submission does not.
Begin with scope, not paperwork
