Restoration of Credentials (CEUs have not been maintained)

Beginning January 1, 2005 -- After four years, or two consecutive CE cycles where a credential holder does not maintain their credential, candidates will be required to apply and retake the applicable examination.

If four years or less, candidates must complete the Intent to Restore Credential application, pay all appropriate restoration fees, and obtain the required number of continuing education units in order to reinstate a credential. During restoration, an individual is listed as a “restoration candidate” for a maximum period of one year.
