What CEUs can be counted toward recertification?

CEU credit is recognized for most educational sessions, seminars, courses, etc. providing training/information relevant to duties as an office manager as cited in Appendix D of the CMM Handbook.  Self study courses, except those specifically approved in advance by PAHCOM, are not recognized for CEU credit. 
If you have a question about a particular educational event, or about the recertification process, email cert@pahcom.com.  Include sufficient information and details to allow a definitive response.

When can CEUs be submitted?

The PAHCOM automated CEU record system will keep your CEUs in your record. Whenever you attend educational events log in to https://www.pahcom.com/members/ceu_log.php and enter your educational event information.

Extra CEUs (over and above the required 24) have no impact on recertification; they cannot be applied forward.

Late recertifications will not be accepted; your credential will be decertified. Once decertified, you must re-test to regain your CMM credential.
