Maintain Your Leadership Certification
Keep your NBLC certification active and in good standing by demonstrating ongoing leadership practice and continuous learning. Recertification not only validates your expertise—it ensures you're staying ahead in a rapidly evolving leadership landscape.
NBLC-certified professionals must renew their certification every 2 years by completing a balanced mix of continuing education and leadership practice. This process helps you:
- Stay aligned with evolving leadership standards
- Deepen your professional impact
- Retain the credibility and recognition of your certification
To successfully complete the recertification process, you’ll need to submit:
- Leadership Practice Documentation – Evidence of ongoing engagement in leadership roles
- 20 CEUs – Continuing Education Units focused on leadership development
- 20 Hours of Leadership Experience – Direct application of leadership in your field
- CEU Summary Report – A reflection on how your learning contributed to impact
CEUs are time-based: 1 CEU = 10 hour of approved learning or contribution
Full Price. $449
