BCSP Benefits

Below are some of the benefits BCSP provides for you and your fellow service members:

DoD COOL Benefits

The Department of Defense’s Credentialing Opportunities On-Line (COOL) program offers substantial support for achieving professional certifications. Each military service’s COOL program includes BCSP’s ANAB-accredited certifications. In fact, the ASP, CSP, and CHST are so popular among service members that they are listed by COOL as “In Demand.”

COOL programs pay for exam fees, examCORE, and certifications' renewal fees. 

Links to each service’s COOL program, where service members can find more information and how to contact a representative for assistance, can be found on the DoD COOL Portal.

“The Air Force COOL program was extremely easy to utilize and the funds were even easier to access. To apply, all I needed to do was upload a quick PowerPoint and call the AF COOL center. My ASP study materials and exam were paid for.”

— David Mace, CSP, U.S. Air Force
