ICC conducts renewal audits on a monthly basis. If audited, you must provide proof of each activity submitted during the three (3) year renewal period. If proof of CEUs cannot be provided, the renewal will be voided and your certifications will revert to their previous status. Renewal fees are not refundable.

NOTE: ICC Training CEUs are automatically added to your myICC account. Proof will only be required if staff is unable to verify the activity internally.

How to Enter and Submit CEUs
