Certification
Outside Plant Designer (OSP)
BICSI OSP Certification Information
The OSP credential recognizes individuals with extensive knowledge and experience in designing new and integrating existing OSP systems to meet codes, standards, and performance requirements. Today, many organizations require the BICSI OSP credential on outside plant projects for designers, and on larger projects for project managers and quality inspectors.
The OSP credential will show your clients and employers that you are uniquely qualified and know the correct methods and approach to plan, develop, manage and supervise outside plant projects safely and effectively–which puts you and your company
ahead of the competition.
What Credential Holders are Saying About their OSP Credential
"(The OSP) is the perfect companion to the ISP-heavy RCDD certification, and my position at the time required both inside plant and outside plant design. It has helped me obtain two OSP positions since I obtained the OSP certification.”
– Marty Emrick, RCDD, OSP, OSP Engineer, Black & Veatch, Tampa, Florida
“I knew I wanted further qualifications after gaining the RCDD designation. Achieving the OSP credential has been valuable in many aspects of my career. I’m now recognized as a confident and credible authority in OSP. I’ve enhanced my skill set. And I am continuously developing my professional status in the ICT industry.”
– Lindon Haigh, RCDD, OSP, Senior ICT Manager, Russell-Smith, Hobart, Australia
“Holding the OSP has allowed me to take part in the project management of outside plant construction and optical fiber networks of great importance.”
