Recertification is something all CHES® and MCHES® must be thinking about during each 5-year cycle. When to get it, how to get it, and how much you are willing to spend on your own professional development. For each individual the magic formula differs depending on budgets and whether your employer supports the continued development of new skills and emerging competencies.
This spring, there are a multitude of free events on timely topics that all certified health education specialists can take advantage of. And the best news is, they are free.
