Recertification Changes

Effective April 1, 2020, the Dermatology Nurse Practitioner Certification Board (DNPCB) updated the recertification process. The DCNP credential remains valid for three years, expiring on December 31, but the new application deadline is October 31. Applications submitted between November 1 and December 15 will incur a $100 late fee. If the application and supporting documentation are not submitted by December 15, candidates must retake the exam.

Revised continuing education requirements are available under the Recertification Information tab on the DNPCB website. For further details, email recertification@dnpcb.org.
