Recertification

Do not forget to keep up on your recertification requirements! Recertification is due every five years. ACF national recommends you maintain a folder with copies of your official certificates and letters, conference registrations, transcripts, etc. in order to keep track of your progress.

 

Recertification application process from the ACF national website:

Step 1: Fill out a Recertification Application.

Step 2: Provide the necessary documentation for your Continuing_Education Hours (CEHs). They must include the number of hours taken and the date it was completed. Do not send original certificates and properly secure all paperwork together.
