Updated Certificate Areas

National Board has made changes to standards in several certificate areas. While candidates were sent an email notifying them of the changes, firewalls sometimes prevent these emails from reaching their intended audience. The information of the changes are below.

Here are links to all three of the standards, along with addenda highlighting changes between previous and current editions:

● EC Gen Standards

● EC Gen Addendum

● MC Gen Standards

● MC Gen Addendum
