Guidelines for Use of the SDSRP Designation for Registered Professionals

The SDS and Label Authoring Registry has adopted a designation for the program to make showing the achievement of being registered more convenient. SDS Registered Professional (SDSRP) will be used to recognize registered individuals. If you are registered in the SDS and Label Authoring Registry program, please familiarize yourself with the guidelines for use of the SDSRP designation and then discontinue use of the previously provided insignia.
