All Certified Professionals need to meet certain requirements to maintain and renew their certification. These requirements are part of the Framework Rules and Sub-Rules (the Rules). These requirements include ongoing engagement in industry and continuing professional development (CPD).
The requirements for each certification are slightly different, and are detailed below.
Any certified professional who does not meet the maintenance requirements may be found ineligible for renewal and may need to re-apply for certification at the end of their certification period.
If you have taken a break from work during your certification period due to caring responsibilities, illness or other personal reasons, please contact the EEC Professional Certifications Framework Secretariat to discuss options for adjusting your maintenance and renewal requirements.
