CHSOS-A Application

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:

1. The CHSOS-A if granted assumes the CHSOS® expiration dates (no matter how much time is left).
2. The applicant should renew their CHSOS® if they are close to their expiration date and are applying for CHSOS-A®.
3. The fees for the CHSOS-A application are separate from the CHSOS® renewal fee and both must be paid.
4. Alternatively, if CHSOS-A is granted and the certificant must now renew, the renewal fee still applies and must be paid.
