Retiring? CUSP Now Offers CUSP Emeritus Status
If you are retiring but are proud of the CUSP credential that you earned and would like to continue to use the designation, the USOLN now offers the CUSP Emeritus status. If you have been a CUSP credential holder in good standing for six years or more and are retired and no longer working in the utility industry, you are eligible for the CUSP Emeritus status. If you are a CUSP who is actively working in the utility industry, you are not eligible for the Emeritus status and will need to meet the standard CUSP recertification requirements.
Those who are granted the CUSP Emeritus status do not need to meet the recertification requirements. There is a one-time Emeritus fee of $250 USOLN Member/$300 USOLN Non-Member. The CUSP Emeritus status can be used on business cards, email signatures or LinkedIn using the format below:
