<div><strong>About HESPA</strong></div>
<div>The Society for Public Health Education (SOPHE) in conjunction with the National Commission for Health Education Credentialing, Inc. (NCHEC) are sponsoring the Health Education Specialist Practice Analysis (HESPA). HESPA is being conducted to re-validate the contemporary practice of entry-level and advanced-level health education specialists and to re-define core knowledge and competencies for health education practice. This study is designed to meet recommendations from the Institute for Credentialing Excellence (ICE) and to maintain National Commission for Certifying Agencies (NCCA) accreditation. <br><br></div>
<div>The results of the study will be used to update the Framework for Health Education Specialists, to ensure that the CHES and MCHES exams reflect the most current and comprehensive state of the profession, and may be used to inform training programs and professional development initiatives.</div>
