The Certified Professional Organizer (CPO) designation is an experience and exam-based certification for professionals who have met specific minimum standards, and proven through examination and client interaction that they possess the requisite body of knowledge and experience.
Prior to sitting for the examination, a CPO candidate must be prepared to verify employment as a professional organizer preceding the exam date. The CPO designation indicates that an individual has the knowledge, experience and skills necessary to teach, transfer or demonstrate organizing skills to facilitate and support a client’s overall personal and/or business goals.
The Board of Certification for Professional Organizers (BCPO) examination presumes that candidates possess and maintain the level of education and experience required for certification as outlined in the eligibility requirements section of the BCPO web site.
Upon successful completion of the BCPO examination, CPOs retain the credential for three years, during which time a total of forty-five (45) continuing education units (CEUs) must be obtained in order to renew the credential.
CPOs adhere to a code of ethics that is enforceable through a stringent ethics complaint procedure.
Recent reality television series such as Hoarders and Hoarding: Buried Alive, and related news stories have brought certified professional organizers into the public eye.
