认证更新流程

• Credits must be earned during the 3-year renewal cycle. If this is your first renewal, you can only submit credits earned after you received the certification and the preparatory course used prior to the exam is not eligible for credit.
• 可用于会员资格或所持职位的最大学分是 3 个学分（membership does not apply for ANAB CEA certification).地方分会会员资格和 PE 许可证不是可接受的会员资格形式。
• 如果您的培训证书没有特别说明 CEU 或 PDH，它将被视为“接触时间”。任何联系时间都必须是与您的认证直接相关的教育培训，并且您必须能够验证您的出勤率。销售会议和非教育会议不符合条件。请使用上面的图表（在“等效项”下）计算您的培训学分。
  • CEH、CEU、LEU、LS、LU、SD、CE、CPE、PDH = 训练小时数的测量值。每小时培训 = 0.2 AEE 学分。
  • For example: 10 hours of standard training (0.2 credits x 10 hours) = 1 CEU = 2 AEE credits

课程提供者应为符合以下条件的经认可的学院或大学、非营利组织或组织的继续教育部门：

• 向完成学习活动的学生授予继续教育单元 (CEU) 或专业发展时间 (PDH)。学习活动应有明确的目标，包括结束时的评估，并将审查纳入学习活动的改进
• 提供者必须保留所有讲师的名单，包括资格
• 提供者必须保留参与者的永久记录，包括课程名称、简要内容、地点、活动日期、持续时间以及授予的 CEU 或 PDH 数量
• 应向每位参加者提供一份参与证书，说明参加的学习活动、日期、地点和授予的 CEU 或 PDH

The AEE Certification board will not pre-approve courses or course providers.  It is requested that course providers present certified professionals with the above information needed for documentation as proof of continuing education.  The decision of what course or activity is to be submitted AEE for credit is up to the judgment of the certified professional.  Continuing education which enhances the professional attribute of the certified professional and is beneficial in an area of practice will be considered by the Board for those who are audited.  If chosen for audit in a random selection, the certified professional will be expected to provide proof of documentation for the CEUs claimed.  Relevant courses presented by an accredited university or college, or nonprofit organization are generally accepted for credit.

Renewal credits are not required to maintain in-training certification. To upgrade your certification, you must meet the certification education/experience requirements and submit the certification application by the in-training certification expiration date.

In-training certifications are non-renewable. If a candidate does not meet the requirements to upgrade the in-training designation, the candidate will need to resubmit to the certification process and successfully meet the criteria for certification by personal data information and examination.

A certified professional upon retiring will be designated as Retired and will no longer be required to pay renewal fees and will no longer be listed in our directory of actively practicing certified professionals. No further reporting is necessary except to notify the Certification Renewal Director.

如果退休的认证专业人士希望将认证状态从退休逆转为有效，则退休的专业人士需要按照认证恢复要求遵循两个选项之一来恢复认证。

失效的认证专业人士有两种恢复的选择：

• Acquire make-up points at a cumulative total equal to 3.5 per year for every year since date of expiration. This option is available one time only. (Does not apply to ENAC recognized lapsed certifications) or,
• Resubmit to the certification process and successfully meet the criteria for certification by personal data information and examination.

Legacy certifications can only be reinstated by credits. Retaking the exam is not available.

Reinstatement credits are determined by the year that your certification expired. Please contact the Certification Director to find out your exact renewal credit requirements.  对于所有计划，如果您的认证已过期超过 3 个更新周期（9 年），您将需要参加并通过考试才能恢复。

Individuals who are out on leave from employment for reasons such as active military duty, disability, or parental leave may voluntarily suspend their certification and reactivate within three (3) years from the current date of expiration. Certified professionals must contact AEE in writing prior to the certification expiration date to request the suspension and include supporting documentation confirming the reason for the leave request.

A certified professional should notify AEE immediately should he or she become fully or partially disabled and unable to carry out the full responsibilities of the certification earned. Subsequently, he or she should advertise and contract to undertake only those capabilities and requirements of the certification earned which he or she is able to completely fulfill. AEE reserves the right to proceed on a case-by-case basis to place any AEE certification as inactive.
