Taking the first steps toward certification…
How Do I Get Started?
If you have completed the required 675 hours of training with an APTA-approved polarity educator and an additional 125 hours of clinical supervision overseen by an RPE who has been a BCPP for at least two years, you may apply to sit for the board-certified examination. As a part of the application process, you must agree to adhere to the APTA Standards for Practice and the Code of Professional Conduct. Click here to email our office with questions or download the BCPP Candidate Handbook and application.
Once a completed application and all necessary supporting documents have been submitted to our office, members of the office staff and the Certification Governing Council will be in touch with you to schedule an exam and secure a proctor.
If you have yet to complete the necessary hours, click here learn more about the educational offerings that prepare an individual for the BCPP certification.

The role of the CGC is to develop and approve the program requirements for the BCPP certification program.

Fees and Discounts
The application fee for the BCPP certification is $249.00. This covers your testing and two-years of certification, assuming you succesfully pass the exam. At the end of two years, you can apply for recertification and present proof of having earned an acceptable number of continuing education units from an APTA-approved source. The cost of recertification is $249.00 every two years.
Individuals who are members of APTA save $99 on the initial application fee by only having to pay $150.00. They continue to save with each recertification by enjoying a reduced recertification fee of only $100.00 every two years.
