CHSPS Membership
Membership is a professional community and benefits program for people and organizations working in certification, education, assessment, workforce competency and quality systems. It is separate from accreditation and provides no advantage in eligibility, review, decisions, appeals or public status.

What membership includes
Membership benefits are listed below. The 10% education benefit applies only to eligible paid CHSPS offerings; accreditation fees and other excluded products are not discounted.
Standards Bulletin and revision notices, plus briefing invitations that explain published changes and public-comment logistics. Public comment itself remains open to everyone.
Notices of reviewer, council and panel openings when they are publicly posted. Selection remains qualification-, need- and conflict-based; membership gives no appointment preference.
Organizational tiers provide 5, 10 or 25 named seats. Assigned staff receive membership benefits while their seat and the parent membership remain active.
Current members may describe themselves factually as a “CHSPS Member,” subject to claims rules. Membership is not accreditation and the membership identity is not an accreditation mark.
Organizational memberships support team seat administration. Billing or purchase-order arrangements may be requested when needed; the actual purchase amount remains the published catalog price.

Terms & boundaries
What membership does not buy
No accreditation advantage
Membership is not considered in accreditation eligibility, technical review, findings, decisions, appeals, maintenance or public verification.
No accreditation-fee discount
The member education benefit does not reduce application, review, annual, renewal, reinstatement or other accreditation-related fees.
No unsupported refund promise
Purchase and cancellation rights are governed by the terms presented at checkout and the current published Refund Policy. This page does not create a separate 30-day refund entitlement.
Renewal. The current catalog defines each membership price as a one-time 12-month price, not a recurring subscription price. Renewal should occur through the then-current membership offer and terms rather than an unannounced automatic recurring charge.
