• Extra credits DO NOT roll over to the next period. 
• Recertification is open from November 1st through December 31st.
• ASATT offers a grace period for late submissions which closes January 31st. HOWEVER all CEUs must still be earned prior to certification expiration date. See the section titled "Grace Period" below for relevant details.
• Technicians (Cer.A.T.) and Technologists (Cer.A.T.T.) must recertify every two years to remain in good standing with ASATT. 
• Technicians (Cer.A.T.) must earn a total of 20 Continuing Education Credits per 2 year period.

• All third party (non-ASATT) CEUs, with the exception of PALS, BLS, ACLS and any continuing education related to Anesthesia Technology from a college or university on ASATT's Approved Schools list, are subject to review. Additionally, each credit that must be reviewed is subject to a review fee (This DOES NOT include ASATT credits or credits listed as an exception). Click here to see the review fees.
• PLEASE NOTE when submitting any virtual non-ASATT CEUs (aside from those listed as an exception above) that ASATT only accepts 5 virtual third party credits PER DAY. This means that you can take as many third party courses as you would like, so long as they are spread out over several days, and you do not take more than 5 on each of those days.
• Applications post-marked, paid, or submitted after 12/31/24 will be subject to a $75 late fee

Grace Period:

ASATT grants a renewal extension until January 31st for application submissions ONLY (CEUs must be earned prior to your certification expiration date, NO EXCEPTIONS). If the 31st of January falls on a Saturday, your packet is due by the end of business on Friday. If the 31st of January falls on a Sunday, your packet is due by the end of business on Monday. There will be no exceptions made for packets received after January 31st, unless prior arrangements were made with the Recertification Committee. Any recertification applications postmarked/sent/completed between 12/31/24 and 1/31/25 will be subject to a late fee of $75 on top of all previously existing recertification and credit fees.  

IMPORTANT: ALL Techs (Technologists and Technicians) MUST have an active BLS certification. Technologists are ALSO REQUIRED to obtain an ACLS/ALS certification (click here to read more). Please submit your credentials in PDF, JPEG, or PNG format with your recertification application. If you do not have a BLS or ACLS, please note that you have until the end of 2024 to obtain one. ASATT recognizes that this rule has previously not been enforced. Going forward, this is a requirement for every recertification period.
