CETP Certification

In September 2019, the National
Propane Gas Association (NPGA) and the
Propane Education & Research Council
(PERC) reached an agreement to sell
the certification assets of the Certified
Employee Training Program (CETP) from
NPGA to PERC, effective December 31,
2019. Therefore, on January 1, 2020,
PERC assumed full administration of the
CETP Certification Program. The sale of
the program assets was mutually agreed
upon by the officers and leadership of
both organizations to advance the safety,
training and certification programs in the
propane industry by moving all program
assets under one roof.
NPGA remains committed to the industry’s
safety, education and compliance through
our continued in-depth engagement
with codes and standards development
organizations and regulatory agencies.
NPGA’s involvement with these groups
will facilitate a more streamlined process
of information sharing with PERC that will
enhance the development of new safety
and training materials.
