Certified Practitioner of Oversight <br />Recommended Reading List <br />NACOLE offers a Certified Practitioner of Oversight (CPO) Credential through its annual <br />conferences. This program recognizes oversight practitioners who have achieved a <br />high level of professional oversight training and encourages employers and oversight <br />agencies to financially support and encourage participation in these voluntary training <br />programs. To earn the CPO Credential, a person must participate in designated <br />training sessions at three qualifying conferences in a five-year period, and satisfy <br />supplemental reading requirements. The 2008 NACOLE Conference was the first <br />qualifying conference for this program. The Credential is valid for five years from the <br />date of the first qualifying conference. <br />Please select any two from the list to complete the reading requirement of the certificate <br />program. <br />Scholarly Books <br />• Balko, Radley.
