Reinstatement of Expired Certifications

WQA's professional certifications are valid for three years. If a person's certification has not been renewed by the cycle's expiration date, the certification is considered lapsed or expired. The person will be considered "decertified" and the person's name will not appear in the online Certified Professionals directory. 

Select the category below that corresponds to the reason your certification lapsed for information on reinstatement. 

  • Expiration due to lack of credits
  • Expiration due to lack of payment (sufficient CPD credits)
  • Lapsed for more than 3 years - Amnesty Program
