For a beginning to mid-level professional the
Certified Park and Recreation Professional (CPRP) is the national standard for
all parks and recreation professionals who want to be at the forefront of
their profession. It’s more than just letters after your name – it’s an
investment in your career that demonstrates your practical knowledge and that
you have the current real-world skills necessary in today’s changing park
and recreation environment.
Year-after-year, the CPRP is the most sought-after credential in the
field – according to surveys conducted by Recreation Management.
“I believe that if a parks and recreation professional has a CPRP this places
them ahead of other candidates that are not certified in the field. It has
definitely allowed me to move up the hierarchy to the department head level
faster than if I did not have my CPRP certification.”
- Walt Bratton,
Director, City of Deerfield Beach, FL
