Retain Your Certification
Once certified, access the recertification portal and start tracking points toward recertification. You are required to recertify every three years.
The recertification portal can be found at https://members.pshra.org/recertificationportal. Here you can review the total number of credits earned and complete your recertification process.
For any external trainings outside of points granted through PSHRA activities, you can access the forms to submit your points within your PSHRA profile.
Only currently certified individuals will be able to access the recertification portal screens.
