Credential Verification Tool
The Next Level Purchasing Association (NLPA) provides an official credential verification registry to help employers and organizations confirm procurement certifications. You can search by name or email address to verify whether an individual’s NLPA credential is active and in good standing. The registry includes both SPSM and CPOx Suite credentials. Participation is voluntary, so some credential holders may not appear in search results.
SPSM vs CPOx Certifications
In our commitment to bringing you the most up-to-date, impactful, and engaging education possible, we have revamped our certification programs. They now contain all of the basics covered in our original program but include new information as well.
We are excited to present the Certified Procurement Operations Suite (CPOx) Programs, which consist of four levels that build off each other.
