Certification

As the significance of a focus on the human side of performance improvement continues to grow, it has become important to not only define the methods by which to most effectively achieve and sustain “next-level” performance, but also to define and recognize levels of expertise and achievement of professionals involved in this field.​

The Association offers two levels of Certification for Human Performance Professionals.

​

​

This designation is awarded to members who have (1) completed an authorized professional course of study in human performance, (2) demonstrated a requisite level of knowledge by achieving a passing score on the HPC Examination, and (3) are passionate about making the world better and safer through the workplace.
