Top New Year’s Resolution for Industrial Hygiene Professionals – CIH® Certification

Many industrial hygiene professionals have recently reviewed this year’s achievements and begun to make resolutions for 2016.  A common decision for many of these professionals includes advancing their career by obtaining the highly coveted Certified Industrial Hygienist® (CIH®) credential.
 
The CIH® has been the premier standard for occupational hygiene certification for more than 55 years, attaining uncompromised integrity, global recognition and career-lasting value.  The CIH® is held only by an elite group of professionals and provides the credential that allows an Industrial Hygienist to stand out from the crowd.
 
For those looking to make 2016 the year they become certified, the American Board of Industrial Hygiene® has developed a clear path to CIH® certification.  The first step is to review one’s eligibility which can be determined in a matter of minutes using a self-assessment tool. ABIH® can help each person understand what is needed to close any requirement gaps that may be found.  Once this has been completed, the application process simply requires educational transcripts, two professional references and a small application fee.  Those planning to take the Spring Exam need to successfully submit all application materials by February 1st.  August 1st is the application deadline for the Fall Exam.
 
“2016 is the year for many in the industrial hygiene profession to take their careers to the next level by earning the CIH® credential,” said Susan Ripple, CIH® and Chair of ABIH®.  “The application process has been outlined with all the necessary requirements and due dates shown online.  Interested parties can find all of this information on the ABIH® website at Become Certified (www.abih.org/become-certified).”
