Standards Program (PSP)
BAEOP members are encouraged
to continue to grow professionally and personally, by attending
workshops, conferences and/or other continuing education classes. If you do not have a Professional Standards Program Certificate, now is a good
time to find out how you can qualify for a PSP Certificate and
start earning extra money in your paycheck. View

PSP Recipients in the Bellevue School District.
BAEOP members achieve recognition through
the PSP program, which is a professional
development certification program designed
for classified employees working within
an educational environment as office
personnel or support staff. In
the Bellevue School District, BAEOP members are able to attain
one or more levels of certification and receive compensation for
their achievements. View PSP Portion of the AISP Agreement.

What
is required of me?
In order to apply for a Professional Standards Program
certificate, an applicant must be a member of NAEOP.
Membership with NAEOP must be continuous, while pursuing
a PSP Certificate and membership must be maintained each
year thereafter in order to be eligible for re-certification
(at every fifth year anniversary of their original certification).
We encourage employees to also maintain membership in
BAEOP and WAEOP, since these organizations provide them with professional
growth and networking opportunities, with other employees who work
in an educational setting. Sixty hours of training are required for
a member to be eligible to recertify and continue to receive their
stipend.
