Additional resources for certifiers will be added to this page as they are developed, please check back soon.

Overisght for AJP Approved Certifiers

AJP is developing our full-scale program of accreditation to the scope of the AJP standards. This accreditation will include an application process, an office visit and witness inspections.

In the meantime, certifiers who meet our training requirements can apply to become participating approved certifiers. These certifiers may carry out AJP certification if they have signed a Memorandum of Understanding with AJP granting AJP oversight of the program and agreeing to participate in the full-scale accreditation process when it is fully developed.
