Recertification Requirements for
Certified Workers' Compensation Professionals
Overview
When attendees successfully complete the Certification Program and examination, they will be certified for a period of two school years following the program. At the end of that time, they must be recertified for successive two-year periods. The recertification requirements are explained below.
Timing
Certification will be based on a school year, September 1 through August 31, with applications for recertification accepted between May 1 and June 30 of the year in which they are due to expire. Individuals who complete a seminar before September of any year will be considered certified for two years after the following August as indicated in the table below.
