NCSA CCSP Certification

CCSP® Certification

CCSP - Certified Customer Service Professional
World-class credentials for customer service professionals across the globe

What does it mean to be a Certified Customer Service Professional?
It means that you have proven your dedication to creating a customer-centric organization, and your employer and team can rely on you as a true leader in customer service excellence. It means that you are committed to the highest standards of excellence and ethics in service for every customer—internal and external—with every interaction. Earning the CCSP® designation elevates your standing in the discipline of customer service.

The CCSP program is designed for management-level professionals, including supervisors, managers, and directors, and focuses on not only customer interactions and the foundations of service, but also other pertinent topics such as planning, coaching, teaming, and HR practices. If you are a direct contact employee (customer service representative, contact center staff, etc.), please visit the DCSP Certification page.
