CHSPS accepts carefully screened sponsorship for education, public-interest resources, research and convenings. Sponsorship can provide factual acknowledgment, but it never purchases endorsement, standards influence, confidential accreditation access, applicant advantage or decision authority.
These are the current published sponsorship rates and acknowledgment frameworks for 2026. They are not self-service cart products. No benefit becomes effective until CHSPS completes the required screen and both parties execute the applicable written sponsorship agreement.
per webinar
Name, logo and an approved neutral one-line description on the supported webinar page and registration communication, plus approved slide and replay end-card acknowledgment. Annual supporter disclosure applies when CHSPS-DEV-600 requires it.
Current related program: CHSPS webinars (free, with registration). Not currently offered for sale.

Qualified acknowledgment across the covered webinar series, plus approved replay end-card acknowledgment and a factual impact summary. No content control, attendee list or accreditation access.
2026 inquiries accepted subject to availability and written agreement.

Acknowledgment on the supported cohort page and approved materials cover, plus verbal acknowledgment during the sessions. Sponsorship includes no participant seats, participant data or content-control rights.
Current related cohort: Oct. 13–14, 2026.
per year
Approved “made free by” or equivalent factual acknowledgment on the supported candidate-resource area and applicable downloads. Recognition never appears on verification, accreditation-decision or standards text surfaces.

Restricted-support inquiries accepted under CHSPS-DEV-600.
event-specific
Sponsorship terms and acknowledgment are published with the applicable event prospectus. No sponsorship buys a standards vote, technical-panel seat, interpretation or public-comment outcome.
Register interest for the applicable event prospectus.
Tax treatment: CHSPS is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, but sponsorship consideration may include benefits. CHSPS does not provide tax advice about a sponsor's treatment of a particular payment.
CHSPS-DEV-600 limits sponsor recognition to approved factual acknowledgment appropriate to the supported activity. Anything beyond that is outside the standard sponsorship acknowledgment model and requires separate review and contracting.
Supporters may describe support factually only in wording approved under CHSPS-DEV-600. A sponsorship relationship may not be reframed as accreditation, preferred status, partnership in accreditation or product approval.
CHSPS separates the people, information and records used for sponsorship from eligibility, technical review, standards decisions, appeals and accreditation outcomes.
Sponsor or funder status does not appear in eligibility, review, validation, reconsideration, appeal or decision files.
Personnel who negotiate or manage support have no accreditation-relevant role concerning that supporter, and vice versa, for the relationship plus 24 months.
Support does not provide confidential accreditation information, applicant lists, attendee personal data or advance nonpublic standards content.
Funding cannot buy a standards vote, measure, interpretation, finding, public-comment outcome or applicant timeline.
Applicant or accredited organizations may sponsor, but support provides no scheduling, review or accreditation-decision consideration.
A sponsor may be publicly acknowledged on the supported activity under the written agreement. Separately, CHSPS-DEV-600 defines when annual supporter disclosure is required. The public Funding Disclosures page summarizes the governance and independence controls applied to external funding.
A supporter whose aggregate support reaches $5,000 or more in a reporting year is included in the annual supporters listing with the category of support.
Support from an organization that is an applicant, candidate or accredited organization is disclosed in the annual listing regardless of amount.
Do not infer anonymity. Program-level sponsorship acknowledgment may still be public under the sponsorship agreement even when the annual supporter-listing threshold is not triggered.
Identify the opportunity and what your organization wants to support.
CHSPS reviews mission fit, structural conflicts, availability and any policy exclusions before agreement.
The agreement states the rate, supported activity, term, approved acknowledgment, deliverables and restrictions.
CHSPS delivers the agreed acknowledgment and applies the public-disclosure rules required by CHSPS-DEV-600.
