Congratulations to 153 New

The CCHP board of trustees congratulates the
latest professionals to earn certification in correctional

have demonstrated mastery of national standards and the
knowledge expected of leaders in this field. They passed
proctored examinations in February, April and May at test sites
across the country. They join thousands of correctional health
care professionals who have earned this distinguished credential.

CCHP
Celebrates 15 Years: Break Out the Crystal!
This spring, more than 100 correctional health professionals
will participate in the CCHP exam at test sites in Nevada, North
Carolina, Oregon and Wisconsin. These individuals, like those
who took the first exam 15 years ago, hope to distinguish
themselves as professionals who have the knowledge expected of
leaders working in the field of correctional health care.

Celebrating
Longevity
The CCHP program has been
in existence for over 15 years. Many in the group of brave
souls who took the first CCHP exam in the fall of 1989 remain
active in the program today.
To celebrate their
dedication, special 15-year gold tabs that hang on the
CCHP pin were distributed at the 2005 National Conference on
Correctional Health Care. These long-timers also were recognized
during the Tuesday luncheon at the conference.
If you are a 5-, 10- or 15-year CCHP but
missed the meeting, you can purchase a pin enhancer for $10 via
the NCCHC online catalog.
