CRL® Recertification

Update your knowledge and apply to renew your Certified Reliability Leader® certification.

At the Association of Asset Management Professionals(AMP), we want you to renew your certification so you can take advantage of the latest technologies in Reliability, Asset Management and industrial maintenance.

CRL recertify

Certifications attest to the ability of maintenance and asset management professionals to implement strategies that make operations safer and more profitable, with management policies that are perfectly aligned with the objectives of companies and organizations. They are proof of these professionals´ capabilities and the areas in which they excel and also a guarantee of quality and high qualification for the companies in which they work.

Your Certified Reliability Leader® is valid for three years.

Starting one year in advance, and continuing quarterly thereafter, we will reach out to certified leaders to invite them to start the recertification process. Maintaining updated contact information will facilitate the extension of the invitation to recertify.

Once you recertify, your certification will be good for another three years from the original certification date. If you need an extension please email crm@assetmanagementprofessionals.org to request an extension up to 3 months. If you have not requested the extension, you will have to retake the CRL exam to keep your certification.

Extension Request

An applicant may request an extension for extenuating circumstance. An extension may be granted for up to three months beyond the expiration date. The following information must be submitted in writing before the expiration date (email is acceptable):

  • A statement of extenuating circumstance
  • Number of recertification hours/credits to date
  • A detailed plan stating how requirements will be met by extension deadline
  • AMP reserves the right to modify or deny the extension.

If the extension is granted, the original expiration date is still valid. During the extension period the applicant is no longer certified and cannot claim to be nor use the credential. Once the recertification requirements have been fulfilled and recertification has been approved, the original expiration date will be reinstated, and the certification will be valid for another three (3) year certification period.

If you need an extension of your current certification, please email crm@assetmanagementprofessionals.org

How to Recertify?

Any professional whose CRL® certification is about to expire may initiate the recertification process taking into account the following ways:

30 contact hours

Participate in a minimum of 30 contact hours (equivalent to 3 CEUs) of relevant skill development and/or training within the 3-year certification period. Application must be submitted, CEU file uploaded, and fee paid. AMP will send a new certificate with updated expiration date (valid for another 3 years) after a review process.

The 30 contact hours, or 3 CEUs, are measured as follows:

0.1 CEU = 1 contact hour (60 minutes of actual learning interaction). Full 8-hour day = 6 contact hours (0.6 CEUs).
Conferences / Workshops:
  • 4-day conference = 2.4 CEUs.
  • 3-day conference = 1.8 CEUs.
  • 2-day workshop = 1.2 CEUs.
  • 1-day summary = 0.6 CEUs.
