What do SDCs need to do to maintain their credential?

Home » FAQs » What do SDCs need to do to maintain their credential?

March 27, 2019 by Veronica Sanchez M.Ed. CABC CPDT-KA

Continuing education is important in this rapidly changing field. SDCs need 12 CEUs every 3 years to maintain their credential.

We make this financially do-able for SDCs in three ways:

  1. CEUs already accepted by the CCPDT can be used to meet SDC renewal requirements.
  2. We recognize “out of the box” options for CEUs such as some types of volunteer work, documentary movies on disability, reading books on disability issues and community presentations on service dogs.
  3. We do not charge a renewal fee.*

*We hope to always be able to keep renewals free, but we reserve the right to charge a nominal fee in the future if needed to offset administrative costs. Individuals who allow their certifications to expire may be charged a fee if they later choose to renew.
