Recertification

How to Recertify

To recertify as a Foot Care Nurse, certificants may either take the foot and nail exam or submit a typewritten portfolio via the Foot Care Professional Growth Program (PGP). Recertification must be established every five years. You must be currently certified and must not have initially attempted and failed the certification exam(s) in order to use the PGP process to recertify. Please review the Foot Care PGP Handbook or the Certification Candidate Handbook for complete guidelines.
