As a certificant you are required to document a minimum of 12 hours of continuing education over a three-year period and pay the renewal fee. A certificant may opt to forgo the 12 hours of CE, but must retest and pay any associated testing fees ($325.00). Testing must place during the late-summer/early fall inspection in the year prior to expiration to prevent a lapse in certification.
