Eligibility 

There are three pathways of eligibility for the BRPT CCSH exam.

  • Pathway #1 is for candidates who have 1,000 hours of clinical experience in sleep health and hold a Bachelor’s degree or above.
  • Pathway #2 is for candidates who have an approved healthcare credential and hold an Associate degree or above.
  • Pathway #3 is for the active RPSGT credential holder who has recertified at least once, completes a CCSH designated focused education program and attains an approved program certificate.

The AAST program has been approved by the BRPT as a CCSH Designated Focused Education Program under pathway #3. Participants seeking the CCSH credential through pathway #3 that complete this designated focused education program, including successfully completing the accompanying course exam with a score of 70% or better, will receive a certificate of eligibility to sit for the BRPT CCSH exam via pathway #3 at the end of the program.

Information on CCSH Credential Eligibility through the Board of Registered Polysomnographic Technologists (BRPT) can be found here: https://www.brpt.org/ccsh/eligibility/  

Important Information Regarding the AAST Post-Test Exam and Access:
 

  • We recommend you utilize all of the accompanying handouts and the CCSH workbook as tools to continue reviewing prior to attempting the AAST CCSH Post-Test Exam. The AAST CCSH Post-Test Exam is open book and you will have two attempts to achieve a 70% or greater score. Further instructions are provided in your Learning Center.
  • There is no time limit for completing the post-test once you begin, however, participants will only receive two attempts.
  • Participants may attempt the exam twice, and must receive an overall score of 70% or higher to pass.
  • Participants will receive a certificate upon successful completion of the exam. This is the certificate that will be used to verify pathway eligibility for the CCSH credentialing examination.
