I-CBC Education and Accreditation Programs

The criteria for the CBC designation are:

  • An earned college degree plus a minimum of three full years of experience in the candidates field; or five years of experience without a degree; and

  • At least one earned designation from another association or organization, or from an institution of higher learning.  Candidates who do not meet this requirement may earn the designation with two years of additional experience in their area of expertise.

  • New members approved for the CBC designation must attend the next annual conference to receive the designation.  Newly approved CBC's may not use the designation until the designation presentation is made at the conference.

TO RE-CERTIFY 

  • Attendance at a minimum of at least one I-CBC conference in a three-year period.  (This will count as twenty-four hours of continuing education.)

  • During each three-year period, forty-eight hours of continuing education must be completed.  Each day at any recognized conference shall count for eight hours.  Classes from any recognized association or organization or state governing body will count the same amount of hours they give as credit toward their requirements.   Writing an article for the I-CBC newsletter will count for eight credits.
