The RA and QA office issues certificates in early February, June and September. To receive your certificate in one of those months, you must submit your application and notify the RA and QA office that you have completed the required courses by the following deadlines.

If you miss the deadline, you will need to wait until the next processing period. It takes the RA and QA office approximately six weeks to process certificates. If you have not received your certificate by Feb. 28, June 30 or Sept. 30, please contact the RA and QA office.
