NASP-Approved Provider Program
The NASP-Approved Provider program permits sponsors of continuing professional development to offer "NASP-Approved" professional development for school psychologists. Obtaining continuing professional development from a NASP-Approved Provider provides assurance that the activity is offered by a sponsor approved through external peer review.
Note. In light of COVID-19, NASP has developed some brief, general guidance for state associations and other NASP Approved Providers regarding provision of NASP-Approved CPD virtually.
