Why earn the CSCP?

A sustainability goal means little until it becomes a policy people follow and a result someone can measure. Buyers, lenders and regulators increasingly look for that evidence, not just a statement of intent.

As a CSCP you can identify sustainability requirements for your business, draft governance, environmental and social policies and a sustainable business model, and manage and report on their implementation.

What will you be able to do as a CSCP?

Turn sustainability commitments into written governance, economic, environmental and social policies, and manage how they are put into practice.

The Certifyd Sustainability Compliance Practitioner (CSCP) brings together 3 core courses, 4 days in total, aligned to NCS competency standards. You can start with any core course, and each one counts the moment you pass its online test and work document. When every course is credited, you submit the certification assessment and earn the CSCP title.

  • Set sustainability goals and objectives aligned with the SDGs and ESG expectations

Frequently asked questions.

Short answers to what people ask first.

How long does the CSCP take?

The 3 core courses add up to 4 days of classes, live online. Each course ends with an online test and a work document.

Is the CSCP aligned to NOSS?

Yes. It is a Certifyd certification aligned to NCS competency standards. The certificate is issued by Certifyd by MITE, not by a government body.

Can I take one core course first?

Yes. Each core course is sold on its own with its own certificate, and it counts toward the CSCP when you continue.

Where do the classes run?

Core courses run live online with a MITE trainer, so you can join from anywhere in Malaysia. The optional one-day Portfolio Development Workshop is in person.

How much does it cost?

The current live class prices are shown above. If a price is not published yet, it shows price on request.

Is the CSCP recognised by employers?

The CSCP is a Certifyd certification, aligned to NCS competency standards. Each employer decides what it accepts, so the certificate makes checking easy: it names the units behind it, each course comes with a transcript, and any employer can verify it online in seconds.

How are you assessed?

Each core course ends with an online knowledge test (multiple choice) and a performance task: you produce a real work document. When every course is credited, you submit your certification assessment online, an assessor reviews it and a verifier checks the result. There is no oral test.

Can my employer pay for the CSCP?

Yes. When you enrol, choose My employer will sponsor me. We make a private link you send to HR, and they pay by invoice. Teams can ask for a quote on the For companies page.

When do I sit the assessments?

At the end of each core course, then the certification assessment once every course is credited. The live classes run on the dates you choose.

Does the CSCP lead to a JPK microcredential?

It prepares you for one. The JPK microcredential (Penyata Pencapaian) is assessed separately through PPT, recognition of prior achievement, against the same units. Your course certificates and transcripts become portfolio evidence, and the one-day in-person Portfolio Development Workshop helps you organise it. Certifyd does not award the microcredential.

Ready to become a CSCP?

Enrol in the full certification, or take the free readiness check and start with one course.

Or start with one core course. It counts toward the CSCP once you finish it.
