How to Submit Your CPIA® Recertification Materials
Before submitting, make sure your CE Tracker is complete and you have documentation for each continuing education activity.
Before You Submit You Need
- Completed CPIA® CE Tracker in Excel format
- At least 50 eligible CE hours recorded
- Supporting documentation for each activity
- Files are clearly named and ready to upload
The tracker is an Excel file. Complete and save the file in Excel format for submission.
Step 1: Gather Your Files
You will need to submit your completed CPIA® Excel CE Tracker and supporting documentation for the CE activities listed on your tracker.
Acceptable documentation may include certificates of attendance, post-program emails confirming participation, or other records demonstrating your attendance.
If you have multiple supporting documents, organize them before beginning the submission process.
Step 2: Submit Your Materials
Upload your completed tracker and supporting documentation through PRIM&R's recertification submission process.
You will be prompted to log in to your PRIM&R profile.
If your supporting documentation is too large to upload, you may combine or compress your files into a .zip folder.
Step 3: What Happens Next?
PRIM&R will review your CE Tracker and supporting documentation. Reviews may take up to three weeks.
Once your materials are approved, you will receive an email with a direct link to pay the $425 recertification fee through your PRIM&R profile or generate an invoice for payment.
Your certification remains valid while timely submitted recertification materials are under review.
Plan Ahead
Submit early when possible.
You may begin submitting recertification materials one year before your certification expiration date.
Submitting early does not change the expiration date of your next certification period.
