The Self-Assessments are publications developed by the Board of Certified Safety Professionals (BCSP) to help candidates evaluate their knowledge in key areas outlined in each certification's exam blueprint. The Self-Assessments contain sample questions matching the exam blueprints without using actual exam questions. Candidates can use the Self-Assessments to identify their strengths and weaknesses to focus their exam preparation. While BCSP does not provide direct training, the Self-Assessments assist individuals in strategizing their exam preparation approach.

Self-Assessment

2. The Self-Assessments are a series of
publications developed by the Board of
Certified Safety Professionals (BCSP) to
assist candidates in evaluating their level
of knowledge in examination blueprint
areas. Each BCSP certification ­— the CSP,
ASP, OHST, CHST, STS/STSC and CET — has
its own Self-Assessment.
Content Includes:
Examination Blueprint
Blank Answer Sheet
Self-Assessment Questions
Answer Key
References and Calculations
Blueprint References
STRENGTHS
AND
WEAKNESSES

3. Both the Examinations’ and Self-Assessments’ questions
are designed based on the percentages indicated for
each “Domain” in the examinations’ blueprints.
Candidates can utilize the Self-Assessment to evaluate
their strengths and weaknesses, strategize test-taking
pace, and plan future studying accordingly.
No question in the Self-Assessment will appear on the
actual examination.
Why Self-Assessment:
BCSP lists examination blueprints and examination
review and preparation service providers at bcsp.org/
Resources/Review-and-Study-Sources. BCSP neither
evaluates nor endorses providers’ materials, and does
not provide training itself.
To understand the certification process thoroughly,
please download the Complete Guide available on each
certification’s webpage (i.e., the Complete Guide to the
CSP at bcsp.org/CSP).
