TMS Re-Accreditation
AoBS Certification is valid for three years, after which renewal is required to stay aligned with current clinical standards and safety guidelines.
Re-Accreditation Options
Professionals can renew their certification in one of two ways:
- Full Course Participation
Attend one of the accredited live or online Clinical TMS Certification Courses, which are updated annually to reflect the latest scientific evidence, safety guidelines, and clinical best practices.
- Theory-Only Re-Accreditation (Online On-Demand)
For previously certified rTMS clinicians and technicians, AoBS offers a streamlined re-accreditation pathway through the theory component of the On-Demand Clinical TMS Certification Course.
This option provides access to the updated theoretical modules and final assessment, covering the latest developments in:
- Clinical TMS applications
- Safety guidelines and best practices
- Advances in stimulation protocols and technology
- Evidence-based recommendations for clinical practice
Participants who successfully complete the theory modules renew their certification for another three-year period.
