Recertification

Maintaining Certification

The Certification Council supports the ongoing professional development of its certificants. To support this purpose, the recertification requirements require continuing education and professional activities that enhance ongoing professional development, recognize learning opportunities, and provide a process for attaining and recording professional achievements.

To maintain use of the Certified Mental Performance Consultant® (CMPC) credential, certification must be renewed every five years. 

Please download the Certification Program Candidate Handbook for complete details regarding the recertification requirements. 

Recertification Requirements

The recertification period occurs annually from September 1 to November 30 (and during the late period December 1-31 with a $25 late fee).

1. Payment of the CEU-based recertification application fee. 
2. A completed recertification application documenting 75 CEUs accrued during the 5-year period and the corresponding CEU certificates for each activity is uploaded through the Certemy platform. Click here for a listing of AASP webinars/virtual conferences that are eligible for CEUs.
