The RVP designation was developed as a joint CAVEWAS/VRAC initiative to recognize those individuals who provide vocational/employment services within the rehabilitation field. The designation is designed for those individuals providing services as vocational/employment counselors, job placement and job development specialists, supported employment counselors/ coordinators, return-to-work coordinators, transition specialists, administer pre-employment/job readiness programs, and those who direct/manage/supervise individuals providing vocational/employment services.

The knowledge domain for the RVP is based on academic knowledge for applicants with a diploma or degree. Membership is open to anyone working in the field of vocational services and to those who are interested in furthering the cause of the Society.
