1/30/2025 - Continuing Certification Requirements for 2025 Now Available!

The ABNS has launched the 2025 Continuing Certification (CC) requirements. To reduce the burden on Diplomates, the ABNS has made several enhancements to the CC process, including removing the chief of staff survey, simplifying the payment and checkout process by combining Dues and Adaptive Learning Tool fees into one consolidated bill, and obtaining primary source verification of all medical licenses.

Diplomates can now access the new requirements by logging into their MyABNS dashboard.
