The WVBEC's new licensing portal goes LIVE 5-1-25!!!

Read the instructions from Cheryl Henry. 

Hello All,
The Board is pleased to announce that we have moved to an electronic licensing system that will "Go Live" on Thursday, May 1, 2025. This system will allow you the opportunity to renew your license and pay the renewal fee electronically for 2025 and beyond!
You will NOT have to print and mail your renewal applications to the Board moving forward. The new system is very user friendly. Please see the PowerPoint (Attached to the email from the WVBEC) that provides illustrated screen shots and the instructions on how to set up your account and access the renewal portal.
The phone number for Certemy technical support is (866) 907- 4088
if you have questions pertaining to the creation or set up of your new account. Please note, they cannot answer questions pertaining to your renewal or CEU submissions. Also, here is the link to submit a support ticket as a professional users: https://certemy.com/contact-support/
