How to submit my re-certification form?
Recertification forms must be submitted online. Please see the downloadable document bellow. No email submission will be accepted. Please contact the chairperson of the re-certification committee if you have any issue or question regarding the process (credecom@ecvn.org).
What is the deadline?
The deadline is 1st October of your recertification due date. You are however strongly encouraged to submit your recertification form earlier.
Do I need referees?
Since 2024, referees are not required anymore for recertification. The website still asks for referees because other EBVS colleges still ask. Please fill the boxes with random names to allow submission.
