Differentiate Yourself! Become an AIA Certified Vision Professional
Sharpen your skills and prove your vision and imaging knowledge.
AIA’s Certified Vision Professional (CVP) program is for individuals working in the vision and imaging industry who wish to enhance their knowledge and professional status. Virtual testing is now available with a live, proctored exam.
Attaining CVP Certification helps you clearly demonstrate your specialized skills. You’ll benefit from an increased confidence in your abilities from your employer, peers and customer.
Certification requires that you attend courses online or in-person and to take a corresponding certification exam at one of AIA’s designated CVP testing locations. Those with prior vision experience can choose to take the exams without attending the courses (although AIA recommends taking the courses first). Continuing education every three years is required to maintain certification.

AIA Offers Two Levels of Certified Vision Professional (CVP) Training and Certification
CVP-Basic Certification
Build your understanding of fundamental vision and imaging concepts with AIA’s CVP-Basic certification program.

CVP-Advanced Certification
AIA’s CVP-Advanced curriculum is the vision industry’s most comprehensive training program available today.
