Following a comprehensive program review, the Consortium’s founding partner associations are considering alternatives to the current certification program model. As a result of these considerations, the Consortium is enacting changes intended to honor existing certificants’ achievements, adapt to the evolving needs of the profession, and responsibly consider alternative models which better support the field.

These changes include discontinuation of future applications. All earned certifications will remain valid and be extended by two years. Recertification will not occur at the conclusion of each extension.
