The Nationally Certified School Psychologist (NCSP) credential recognizes school psychologists who meet rigorous national standard (2010) for graduate preparation and continuing professional development. Many states and school districts accept or align their credentialing requirements with the NCSP, and some offer additional employment benefits for achieving highly qualified professional status. The NCSP is administered by the National School Psychology Certification Board (NSPCB; established by NASP), follows the National School Psychology Certification System Procedures Manual, and is open to NASP members as well as to nonmembers.
