current with best practices, broaden their understanding of the industry, and

continue to be recognized as the competent person of Biomedical Engineering

Maintenance (BEM). Given the moderate rate of change for the BEM field,

including the standards upon which it relies, ACCB believes a three-year

recertification cycle is appropriate.

CERTIFICATION HANDBOOK CHB001

@COPYRIGHT_ACCB-Private and Confidential Page | 23

b) Introduction

In a profession that regularly undergoes change; the importance of certification is

growing rapidly. The purpose of this program is to ensure that those who are

actively certified maintain a level of professional knowledge and skill, that is

consistent with the standards according to which certification was initially

conferred.

Certification is only as valuable as the standard it represents, if the standard is

maintained. Recertification programs are extremely important because they require

holders of the credential to present evidence that they are maintaining the

established standard. This, in turn, enables certification to retain meaning and value

for every individual who achieves it, particularly as the years pass after the

credential is issued.
