Earn CRP® CE Credits after expiration date

You are allowed up to four and a half months beyond your expiration date to complete your CE credits (December 31st of your expiration year), if needed, provided that your membership is current. However, the CRP® recertification renewal fee increases incrementally as a result. Therefore, it is to your advantage to complete your CE credits on or before your renewal date.

Deadline Extension Dates & Rates
Grace Period August 15, $150.00
September 15, $185.00
October 31, $215.00
*December 15, $ 250.00
*Please note that failure to complete credits and pay the renewal fee by this date will put your CRP designation in jeopardy of becoming lapsed. During expiration or a lapsed designation, you are unable to utilize the designation on any media platform or in signatures. 

Please see How to Retain the CRP® Designation for more information.
