Post-nominal title

Definition

A post-nominal title is a set of letters written after a person's name to show a credential, membership or certification that the person currently holds.

Does a Certifyd certification carry a post-nominal title?

Yes. Each Certifyd certification has its own letters. For example, the Certified Payroll Administrator uses CPAD and the Certified Supervisor uses CSV.

How should you use a post-nominal title?

  • Write it after your name on a CV, email signature or profile.
  • Describe it accurately as a Certifyd certification aligned to NOSS competency units.
  • Do not present it as a degree, a professional licence or a statutory qualification.
Courses, checks and reading on the same work.
