Continuing education is vital to staying current in naturopathic modalities and maintaining an effective practice.  The American Naturopathic Certification Board (ANCB) requires Board Certified professionals to complete 20 hours of continuing education every two years and submit documentation of this education. 

ANCB approves various forms of learning experiences to satisfy this requirement.  In addition, the professional is allowed to submit other forms of learning programs or participation to ANCB for consideration. These will be evaluated on an individual basis. Approved continuing education experiences that ANCB will accept as fulfillment of the bi-annual requirement include: 

• Conference or Convention attendance
• Course completion
• Weekend seminars or training programs

ANCB will accept copies of transcripts, Certificates of Completion, Certificates of Attendance or Continuing Education Units forms as verification of continuing education participation.  Please contact the ANCB office to submit learning experience verification for evaluation.           

An excellent venue for completing continuing education requirements for ANCB is attending the American Naturopathic Medical Association (ANMA) Annual Convention in Las Vegas, Nevada.  For information, visit www.anma.com.
