IMPORTANT: NCCER continually reviews its certification procedures to ensure that its
credentials reflect an individual’s knowledge and skills and align with industry standards.
As a result of this ongoing review, periodically NCCER must implement changes to ensure
our intentions are met, and desired and appropriate outcomes are achieved. Effective
January 1, 2013, individuals who have achieved NCCER’s Certified Written credential and
who have passed the existing Performance Verification (PV), regardless of the PV’s
edition or version number, will be recognized as Certified Plus. Previously, the Certified
Plus credential required that the version of the written assessment and the edition or
version of the PV match.
There is no change to the credentialed status of any individual’s credentials prior to
January 1, 2013. As always, the NCCER registry will reflect an individual’s current
certification. The registry will reflect any change in credentials occurring effective January
1, 2013 or thereafter.
