In order to maintain AACE certification an active certificant is required to recertify every three-years. The most popular, and easiest, method to recertify is through continuing education units (CEUs). However in cases where a certificant is unable to accumulate sufficient CEUs, recertification by examination is another option.
This option will require the certificant to go through the application process as new examination candidates, except that eligibility requirement documentation is not required, including clearance and an access voucher code to schedule the exam at a Kryterion testing center. The certificant is given one opportunity to pass the examination in order to recertify their active certification for three additional years.
Certificants must have taken and passed their certification re-examination before expiring in order to avoid removal from the certified directory.
