Recertification Requirements
Your CETL certification will expire three years after the date of issue. To remain certified, you are required to stay current in the CTO field by completing 60 hours of continuing education activities (CEAs). All activities must be tied to one or more of the ten skill areas identified in the Framework. In addition, your recertification activities must take place within your three-year certification cycle.
CEAs are calculated on a 1:1 basis (for example: 1 hour at a conference session = 1 CEA hour) unless otherwise noted below. Credit is only awarded for education-related activities (registration, exhibit hall, and meal time hours, for instance, should not be included in your calculations). CEAs may be completed in any of the following ways:
Continuing Education
Includes activities such as conferences, seminars, college courses, on-the-job professional development classes, or other educational activities.
Maximum of 60 hours
E-Learning/Online Courses
Courses in which you are given an assessment at the end of the course, and/or include college credit.
Maximum of 60 hours
Courses with no assessment or college credit (e.g., webcasts, videoconferences, podcasts).
Maximum of 20 hours
Industry-Related Certification Four (4) hours will be awarded per industry-related certification (e.g., Comp TIA, CISSP). Maximum of 12 hours
Teaching/Instruction

Recording Recertification Activities
Keep track of your CEAs as you complete them. You may use this recertification form or keep track of activities in whichever way you to choose.
Once you have accumulated 60 hours of activities, you may submit your application to recertify. Your activities will not be monitored or approved by CoSN until you have accumulated the required 60 hours and your application is submitted. If you have questions about a specific activity, please email us at certification@cosn.org.
Recertification Costs
The cost to recertify is $150 ($300 for nonmembers). Your recertification application must be accompanied by this fee.
