Certification Program Updates
Instant Access: Print Your Certificate(s)
No more waiting for the mail to arrive to receive your renewed HSPA certificate! When your renewal is complete, you will have instant access to print the same document you used to wait for by mail, saving you valuable time and energy.
As of January 1, 2024, HSPA is no longer mailing copies of renewal certificates.
HSPA works hard to keep your renewal and exam rates as low as possible, while maintaining our high standards of service. Due to soaring printing and mailing costs, we have had to explore timelier and more cost-effective options for those renewing. The switch to digital, printable certificates was the most effective solution that not only allows for more convenient and immediate access to your renewed certificates, but also helps fulfill HSPA’s quest for controlling costs and fostering environmental stewardship.
Instant Verification: Verify Online
As soon as your renewal is processed, you may also verify your certification status by visiting https://verify.myHSPA.org. If you provide your HSPA ID number to your supervisor/manager/HR Department, they may verify your status and expiration date online as well.

Test Security Updates: Image Capture
As of September 1, 2024, all individuals taking exams with HSPA will be required to have their photograph taken at the Prometric testing centers before they are permitted to test, as part of the check in process. These photographs will only be used by HSPA for verification and will not be used for any further purposes. Failure to comply with this mandatory requirement will result in the forfeiture of your exam and any fees paid.
Application Updates: HR Verification
HSPA selects a random sampling of all exam applications for further verification and review of the hours of experience submitted. Individuals whose applications are selected for auditing may be asked to submit additional verification, such as a letter from HR confirming employment and/or volunteer status with the facility.
