WHAT IS CUSP?
The Certified Utility Safety Professional (CUSP) certification is the only program that offers safety credentials to utilities, related contractors and communication providers. Created by the Utility Safety & Ops Leadership Network (USOLN), the CUSP credential provides industry-wide professional recognition as a utility safety professional and provides employers the assurance of an individual’s broad knowledge, skills and abilities in the utility work environment when hiring or promoting. The USOLN Board of Directors is the oversight body for the Certified Utility Safety Professional Credential. It is an objective and impartial body that is responsible for all decision-making and operations of the certification program.
