    * HACCP Auditor
    * Manager of Quality/Organizational Excellence

Two Ways to Recertify

1.  Recertification Journal: Obtain a minimum of 18 recertification units during your three-year certification period. Document them in your recertification journal.

2.  Examination: Sit for the exam. (Required if your certification expired and is past the six-month grace period.)
