Maintaining your Credential Board Certified Coach

Credential Maintenance Requirements

Your Board Certified Coach (BCC) certification is valid for five years as long as you comply with CCE policies and procedures. To maintain your certification, you are required to recertify at the end of five years. The chart below summarizes the steps you are required to take each year to maintain your certification with the Center for Credentialing & Education (CCE).

*A late fee of $15 will be applied if annual maintenance fee is not paid by due date.

Audit Selection

Each year, CCE randomly selects a percentage of BCCs due for recertification. If audited, you will need to submit documentation of 70 hours of continuing education with your signed recertification notice. Your recertification notice will indicate audit selection.

• To document clock hours for continuing education, please use the Credentialing Gateway.
• For questions regarding continuing education, please visit the continuing education portion of our web site.
