Frequently Asked Questions

Each year, the FCB strives to assist certified individuals complete the renewal process as smoothly as possible. This year, we are sharing the top three questions that we receive every year at renewal time.

Question #1: Am I being audited this year?

Answer: The FCB uses a random, computer generated selection process to identify individuals who must provide proof of current CEUs as part of their renewal requirements. Prior to invoices being run, the FCB cannot tell you if you will be audited or not. Please check your invoice.

Question #2: What is my username and password?

Answer: Your username and password is printed on your invoice. Please write this down for future use. If you have lost your invoice and/or your username/password, you may call the office for this information.

Question #3: Where can I get my CEUs?

Answer: The FCB accepts CEUs offered through a variety of sources. Please check your certificate: if it indicates any of the following approvals, you may use the CEUs to maintain your FCB credential.
