Continuing Education Credit (CEC) program

The Continuing Education Credit (CEC) program is designed and implemented to standardize CEC policies globally within the association. The purpose of these policies is to facilitate consistent application, assignment and award of BICSI CECs and enable BICSI credential holders to maximize their training resources in expanding their knowledge base while maintaining current credentials in an efficient manner.
