Consensus standards and exposure limits
Z10 is still the 2019 edition
ANSI/ASSP Z10.0-2019 remains the current U.S. standard for occupational health and safety management systems. ASSP's 2024 publication, GM-Z10.100-2024, is a guidance and implementation manual for it, not a new edition.
On your exam?
Yes, now
Z10.0-2019 is current, and all three BCSP reference lists include Manuele's Advanced Safety Management, a textbook built around Z10, so its concepts are fair game.
Judged against ASP11, CSP11 and CHST5, the outlines in effect on October 16, 2026.

Nothing new to learn
If you see "Z10 2024" in a course catalog, it's the guidance manual. The requirements are still those in Z10.0-2019, which replaced Z10-2012 (reaffirmed 2017).
What gets tested
Management-system concepts that Z10 and ISO 45001 share: leadership and worker participation, planning and risk assessment, the hierarchy of controls, evaluation and corrective action, and management review.
