The National Association of Personnel Services (NAPS) has established two accreditation programs to recognize employees within the industry who have earned professional certifications. The Certified Personnel Consultant (CPC) and Certified Temporary Staffing Specialist (CTS) designations have been established to highlight those in the industry who have been tested in meaningful standards of knowledge, including business operations, business ethics and employment laws.

Certified individuals must pass a written examination as well as earn the required continuing education credits of NAPS approved material or training. Individuals must have a minimum of 2 years of industry experince prior to testing. Certified individuals agree to uphold the NAPS Standard of Ethical Practices and Code of Ethics .

Working with a CPC or CTS means you are dealing with someone who has a thorough understanding of the laws governing hiring practices, well-rounded experience, and commitment to the industry through continuing education and an oath to uphold the ethical standards of NAPS.

As well, the American Staffing Association has established an Individual Certification Program which our staff participates.

Certified individuals agree to uphold the ASA Code of Ethics.
