*You will be attesting to the completion of your CCR requirements on your renewal. Therefore, CCRs need to be completed before you renew.
***The Board also recognizes the maintenance of current NBCOT certification as fulfilling the Continuing Competency requirement. ***
Do I have to send in copies of my certificates of completion? You only have to submit proof of your CCRs if you are audited. Otherwise, you will attest to your CCR completion during your renewal.
Where can I find additional information?
Refer to COMAR 10.46.04 for complete regulations.
