The Board for Global EHS Credentialing (BGC) is an organization based in Lansing, MI that aims to improve recognition and certification for professionals in the field of environmental health and safety. They offer a range of credentials, including the Certified Industrial Hygienist (CIH) and the Certified Associate Industrial Hygienist (CAIH), to acknowledge the contributions of individuals in preventing occupational and non-occupational illnesses.
The BGC provides certification maintenance programs and upholds a Code of Ethics to ensure that their credential holders, including CAIHs, adhere to professional standards. Although the CAIH examination was discontinued in 2006 due to low demand, the designation is still recognized and supported by the BGC, with many practitioners choosing to maintain their certification through ongoing education.
