What it means to be certified


Many people think of the NCBTMB credential as a certificate on the wall. But it is what that certificate represents that truly matters. When you become nationally certified it means, of course, that you have:
  • Completed a minimum of 500 hours of instruction
  • Demonstrated mastery of core skills, abilities and knowledge
  • Passed a standardized NCBTMB exam
  • Pledged to uphold NCBTMB’s Standards of Practice and Code of Ethics
More importantly, it means that you have the experience and expertise to positively affect the health and well-being of others. And that’s what NCBTMB and its certification program are all about.
