  3. Renewing Your Certification Renew by March 31st of every year it is NOT the calendar year (Please note: The phrase “I didn’t know my card expired” after being certified for 10 years will no longer be acceptable.) (Trainers – PLEASE explain this to students who are training from January to March)

  4. If you don’t renew by March 31st: • $25.00 late fee (per discipline) • If you need a refresher you have a 6 month grace period (after March 31st) however you CANNOT perform any lead activities from March 31st until you complete the training and State exam. • Expired for more than a year (when you need a refresher) than you will need the initial training.

  5. Renewal Fee’s • Worker – Supervisor fee’s (You do not pay both) • Inspector fee’s – Insp/RA fee’s (You do not pay both)

  6. Last Minute or Incomplete Applications (Initial or Renewing) Incomplete Applications – will be notified at the exam or by phone ONCE. You will not be certified until we receive everything required. (SSN are required to process application) Last Minute Applications – Can’t guarantee there is or will be room in an exam. If the exam is full you WILL BE scheduled for the next AVAILABLE exam.

  10. Trainer Info….. • Scheduling exams– Students are not scheduled for an exam until we RECEIVE an application. • Please make sure students know what they need to send in with their applications. (Copies of certificate(s) & work history)

  11. Remember….. I am also a compliance officer so keep in mind if you fail to renew your certification I will see you in the field and know that you are not current…... Lapsed certification + working = citation (It’s cheaper to pay your renewal fee’s )

  12. And……… If you fail to pay your citation I am also a collections officer……..I will never go away!
