recertification procedure and forms

ABFO Recertification Forms

Diplomates of the ABFO are required to recertify every five years in order to maintain their status as “board certified.” Shortly after the ABFO Annual Meeting in February, the group of Diplomates who are eligible to recertify in a particular year will be contacted and notified of the details of the recertification procedure by the Certification & Examination Committee Recertification Chair. The recertification procedure is a two-part process:

1. A completed application form must be submitted to the C&E Committee showing the Candidate has met the current requirements for recertification (see the most recent ABFO Diplomates Reference Manual for specific requirements)
2. As part of the application procedure the candidate must review a presentation on current ABFO standards and guidelines and attest by their signature that the presentation has been reviewed.
