Danny’s Answer

Before being certified, you should be aware how long your certification is valid for. Every certification is different, some are 1 year, 2 year, 3 year or even lifetime. The governing body will provide guidelines on how to maintain a valid certification or license. Some may require a certain amount of hours or training or CPE (Continuing Professional Education) in order to maintain the status. I would do a quick google search and see what the requirements are to maintain that license/certification. Also a good tip is to spread the training out over the year and not do it all at the last minute like everyone else.

Thank you comment icon This is very good advice, Danny. Sheila Jordan

Paul’s Answer

I agree with the information and advice that Danny provided above. I would also add that renewing a certification or license often has a cost associated with it and it can be helpful to know that information to avoid a surprise bill. Some employers may offer partial reimbursement of certifications or licenses.
