The recertification process assures that MROs have kept up to date in their knowledge and performance of the essential duties of the MRO process. It is designed to assist MROs in evaluating their knowledge of rule changes and technical issues and to enhance their knowledge base regarding current practices and procedures. Thus, the exam acts as a self-evaluation and MRO diagnostic tool.
Participants select a convenient date to take the examination and are given one week to complete it.
Exam materials are sent out and returned via overnight courier, with prepaid air bills and shipping materials provided. Applicable supplementary materials are noted on the application and are available to order. New DOT regulations will require that MROs complete 12 hours of continuing medical education in this field every three years.
