To ensure our certification standards correspond appropriately with our developing ICT industry, BICSI will be updating its CEC Program Policy for credential holders. The forthcoming newly named Credential Holder Recertification Policy introduces greater flexibility, recognizes additional professional contributions, and offers new ways to earn continuing education credits (CECs). Earning categories expand to incorporate more continuing education opportunities, BICSI and affiliate events, ICT-related academic courses, and required professional ethics courses. Professional contributions now include BICSI speaking, BICSI volunteering, and BICSI membership credits. Innovative learning formats are updated to encompass blended learning, micro/nano learning (which can earn CECs in 15-minute increments), virtual instructor-led training, and web- based training.

*For example: RCDD® – 30 CECs minimum for continuing education; maximum of 15 for speaking and volunteering combined. Also, Legacy certifications, such as RITP, NTS, WD, ESS, and INST2®, retain their CEC requirements for continuing education and a new ethics requirement.
