Earn BICSI CEC's
The NFOC can provide the BICSI Continuing Education Credits (CEC's) you may need toward maintaining your professional certifications. The number of CEC's available for each of the NFOC Learning Sessions are listed on the Learning Segments page.
BICSI CEC's are available to individuals who hold one or more BICSI certifications. By earning CEC's, individuals are able to document that they have participated in certain professional development activities during BICSI's certification renewal period.
Advantages of BICSI Membership
If you are not a BICSI member, we encourage you to become one. The knowledge you gain through BISCI membership and the coursework required for BICSI certification can help you achieve your career objectives. Maintaining your BICSI certification also demonstrates to your customers and colleagues that you keep current on developments in our evolving industry.
