What happens if compliance with the Mandatory Continuing Education program is not met?

If compliance with the Mandatory Continuing Education program is not met, the certification expires. This requirement ensures that certified individuals continue to update their knowledge and skills in their field. By requiring ongoing education, the certification body maintains high standards of practice and ensures that Certified Therapeutic Shoe Fitters are aware of the latest advancements, regulations, and best practices in the industry.

When certification expires, the individual is no longer recognized as certified, which could impact their ability to practice or work in certain professional capacities. It's essential for professionals to stay current with education requirements to maintain their credentials and provide safe, effective services to their clients.
