Recertification Summary

The ABT policy of Recertification identifies three performance criteria by which each Diplomate will be evaluated pursuant to recertification for five additional years. These criteria are:
1.    Active Practice of Toxicology,
2.    Continuing Education,
3.    Maintaining Expert Knowledge in Toxicology.
As part of the latter criterion, each Diplomate will complete an open book recertification examination during the fourth year of recertification. Use of such an examination is regarded by the Board as a constructive and objective means by which the Diplomate and the Board may measure maintenance of expert knowledge in general toxicology.
After two recertifications have been completed, subsequent recertifications will require that two satisfactory examination questions be submitted and accepted in lieu of the recertification exam.

Full recertification information, as well as the recertification application and forms, can be downloaded by Diplomates by logging into the the Diplomates only area of the website.
