How many classes do I need to take to renew?
Assuming you have kept
your certification up to date and you are currently employed, you need to earn:
- 3
points for BOC-Level I
- 8
points for BOC-Level II
Each 3-hour session is worth 3 points. BOC-Level I holders need to take one (1) 3-hour class to renew. BOC-Level II holders can take multiple 3-hour classes and/or earn points through the other means that are outlined below.
What if
my certification has lapsed?
You must earn points for
every year it has lapsed in addition to the points you need for 2018 in order
to renew for 2018. If you don't know whether your certification has lapsed,
contact us at the information below. Learn more about renewal
requirements here.
Besides
attending the MOC Fair, what are other ways I can earn renewal points?
You have several options:

BOC website lists multiple activities that are eligible for earning renewal points.

may have taken a continuing education class through CUNY that
counts toward renewal points; contact us to confirm whether your class is
