Every credential renews every two years. The table lists each credential's renewal fee, the fee for each additional credential you renew at the same time, and the education hours you need. Select a credential for its full renewal requirements.

  • Ethics: every renewal includes 3 hours in ethics, except CRS and CFRS, which need 6 hours in ethics and 3 hours in confidentiality.
  • Endorsements renew at the same time as your qualifying credential. Their hours count toward that credential's total.
  • Expired credentials: you can still renew for six months after your expiration date, with an additional late fee.
