If your DANB CDA, COA, CPFDA or CRFDA certification has expired, an additional reinstatement fee, proof of meeting the CDE and DANB-accepted CPR requirements may be required to reinstate. In some cases, retesting all or some of the certification component exams is required. Please contact DANB’s Recertification Department for your reinstatement option(s). NELDA, CDPMA and COMSA certifications cannot be reinstated.
To protect the authenticity of its certification marks, DANB sends reports of lapsed certificants to state regulatory agencies. Misuse of any DANB certification mark is grounds for discipline under DANB’s Disciplinary Policy & Procedures. Download DANB's Disciplinary Policy & Procedures or contact DANB for a copy.
