How can I keep my certification current?

All AMCA certifications require continuing education to stay current. In order to keep your AMCA certification active, you are required to complete 10 continuing education credits every two years. To learn more, click here.

I wasn’t successful in my first exam attempt. What are my options?

If you were not successful in your first attempt, it is important to know that you still have options to obtain your certification. We are here to help. After the first attempt, candidates will have two more opportunities to retake the exam at a discounted price. All exam retakes must be scheduled 30 days after the first attempt, but with 1 year from the date you completed your program. To learn more about scheduling a re-take exam, log into your AMCA account here and click on the “Exam Retake” tab.
