Application Cycles
CHSOS-A applications are now reviewed in two application cycles every year. Applicants should submit their applications prior to the application deadlines each year.
Application Process
The CHSOS-A application is separate from the CHSOS® renewal process. There are a few key points the applicant should understand:
- The CHSOS-A if granted assumes the CHSOS® expiration dates (no matter how much time is left).
- The applicant should renew their CHSOS® if they are close to their expiration date and are applying for CHSOS-A®.
- The fees for the CHSOS-A application are separate from the CHSOS® renewal fee and both must be paid.
- Alternatively, if CHSOS-A is granted and the certificant must now renew, the renewal fee still applies and must be paid.
