Exam outline and official sources
National Commission for Health Education Credentialing, Inc.

The workbook label 'Certified Health Education Specialist - Advanced (CHES-A)' is mapped to NCHEC's evidenced advanced credential, MCHES®, while retaining the assigned slug. CHES-A is not an official examination name established by the issuer. NCHEC distinguishes entry-level CHES® from MCHES®, which includes entry and advanced competencies. HESPA III 2025 becomes the examination framework in Spring 2027.
