December 1st C-cert Deadline Quickly Approaching
Only 30 days to deadline!
Don't wait until the last minute! All UCNS diplomates are required to complete and meet the annual continuous certification (C-cert) requirements to maintain their subspecialty certification. December 1st is the deadline for completing all 2023 C-cert requirements (and any outstanding 2022 requirements) to maintain certification and ensure a certification status of "meeting requirements" beginning in 2024.
If you have already passed your 2023 C-cert assessment quiz:
Congratulations, you've met the 2023 C-cert requirements.
If you have not paid your 2022 and/or 2023 C-cert fee(s):
Look for the blue "Pay Now" icon on the left side of your profile page to pay any outstanding 2022/2023 C-cert fees. Click "Website Help" to find assistance for diplomates relating to website sign in and payment instructions.
Once the C-cert administrative fee is paid, you have access to your quiz at any time under the "Assessments" area on your online physician profile page.
If you have paid your C-cert fee(s) but have not taken and passed the 2022 and/or 2023 C-cert assessment quiz(zes):
IMPORTANT REMINDER: According to policy, diplomates who do not meet the C-cert requirements for two consecutive years will no longer be certified and must pass the high-stakes certification exam to reinstate their certification. UCNS certification must be maintained by meeting the annual C-cert requirements.
