Once you attain the CISR designation and experience the career fulfillment that comes along with it, you will want to make sure your knowledge and expertise stay up to date. A commitment to annual continuing education makes that possible.

To maintain the CISR designation, you are required to complete one of the following skills-enriching courses every year. (NOTE: no exams are required for classroom updates. Online updates at CISR OnLine do require an exam.)

NEW OPTION: CSRM for CISR

Now you can take one Certified School Risk Managers (CSRM) course in place of one CISR course to earn the CISR designation. Two designations can now be earned by taking only nine courses -- and only ONE annual update is required for double CISR/CSRM designees. Customize your education while you heighten your risk management knowledge!

OR UPDATE WITH ONE OF THESE:

• Any one of the five CISR courses
• A William T. Hold Seminar*
• Combine two four-hour advanced online topics. NOTE: No final exam is required to receive update credit for online courses, but successful completion of mandatory quizzes and review tests is required.  To receive CE credit, participants must take and pass all quizzes, review tests, and the final exams. Three attempts are allowed for the final exam. (Additional four-hour topics are under development.)
