Certification means that "you are board certified." Receiving a certificate from an institution DOES NOT MEAN you are board certified. (This is a very important information to understand!!!).

Some argue that board certification is almost an equivalent of Master's degree? They argue that spending four months in being board certified is almost like four years in college. Did you know that on business cards and e-mail signatures, no one lists Bachelor's degree anymore, but they proudly display certification titles and Master's degrees? No wonder we take pride in seeing our students become certified in the right programs.

COMMENCEMENT DATE

Preferably, a student should be getting certification-ready while in their training programs. The longer you wait, the harder it becomes to pass the certification examination. Success rate is higher if certification is considered during the training program.
