Retention of certification requires CMMs to obtain 24 hours of Continuing Education Units (CEUs) every two years and submit documentation to PAHCOM along with the $75 processing fee. Continuous PAHCOM membership is required. Click here for a list of educational programs currently pre-approved for PAHCOM CEUs.

CEU Clarification

CEU credit is authorized for most educational sessions, seminars, courses, etc. providing training/information relevant to duties as an office manager. The sessions are not required to be pre-approved by PAHCOM at this time, but information must be relevant, and the presenter recognized as qualified and credible. Self study courses, except those specifically approved in advance by PAHCOM, are not authorized for CEU credit. If you have a question about a particular session, or about the recertification process in general, call the national office at 800-451-9311

Submit CEUs Within Two Months of Recertification Date

When you have collected the 24 Continuing Education Units (CEUs) for your next recertification, wait until you are within two months of your recertification date to submit your package to the national office. Submitting early will not change your recertification date. Extra CEUs (over and above the required 24) do not count towards recertification, and will not change your recertification date. Your recertification date will always remain the same, either April 1 or October 1 every two years.
