If it’s been 2 years since you’ve completed our TTS training program, please see below for instructions on how to keep your certification up to date!

What is CTTS Recertification?

CTTS Recertification is for those who have completed a Tobacco Treatment Specialist training program. Recertification is for the purpose of keeping your TTS certificate current, demonstrating that you have the most up-to-date training and education in the tobacco treatment field. You must renew your certification every 2 years. This will require you to complete 18 Continuing Education Hours (CEH) or Continuing Medical Education (CME) credits. This must be granted by an accredited organization, and you must provide documentation of these hours.

Requirements:

  • Please complete the TTS recertification application/ submission
  • Recertification payment: $100 via check or credit card
  • 18 CE’s related to smoking cessation and tobacco treatment

Continuing education hours approved as follows: 

  • Tobacco-focused courses
  • Non-tobacco motivational interviewing
  • General addiction or addiction courses specific to an area other than tobacco
  • Health Behavior/Wellness/Prevention and Public Health Courses (These would include control/prevention/public health workshops)
  • Courses that don’t fall under these categories will not be approved for credit
