Do you want your company listed in the printed edition of the SPFA Membership Directory & Buyers' Guide? If so, you must be a Member, in good standing, by May 31, 2021.
Each year SPFA Membership expires on December 31. This year, we implemented a grace period so SPFA Members had access to all their benefits as we rolled out our new website, established new payment procedures for dues and worked through COVID-19. The grace period is coming to an end in May.
If you have not yet paid your 2021 Membership Dues, there is still time to act. Likewise, if you are not yet a member of SPFA, there is still time to join.

The PCP’s Quality Assurance Program (QAP) Committee has authorized the temporary suspension of CEU requirements for re-certification until December 31, 2023. In other words, if you are due to re-certify your credentials and need CEUs, you have until December 31, 2023 to submit the CEU. You are now able to re-certify by completing all the other steps and the CEU requirement will be waived.
IMPORTANT – Be sure to renew your PCP Credentials no later than May 31, 2021 in order to have them noted in the printed SPFA Membership Directory and Buyers’ Guide. Accredited Companies will have the PCP Accreditation Mark near their listing(s) in the Directory. Those that employ certified individuals will also be noted.
These distinctions are also part of the Find-A-Contractor Search feature on the website, which will be launched soon.
To check the status of your re-certification and/or renewal of PCP Credentials, contact Crystal Dalgleish at admin@spfapcp.org.

SPFA is doing its part to bring awareness of open positions in the industry to our members, partners, and untapped talent pools. For every one of these positions going unfilled it’s an opportunity missed, an extra staffing challenge drawing attention away from other important priorities, or a customer perhaps needing to wait longer than they should have to.
