Certified Speaking Professional (CSP)

The Certified Speaking Professional designation is awarded to working speakers who have undertaken an independent audit of their professionalism and business maturity.

As the CSP is an international designation, the APSS CSP accreditation requirements have been designed to meet, as closely as possible, the same standards used by the other accrediting organisations (such as the National Speakers Association USA and Professional Speakers Australia).

The CSP designation is only valid while a person is a financial member of Asia Professional Speakers Singapore (APSS) or one of the other GSF-affiliated associations. If a Certified Speaking Professional ceases to be a member of any GSF-affiliated association, their designation is no longer valid, and they must remove it from all their materials and products.
