If you are applying for certification for the first time, or you are submitting a recertification application within 90 days of your expiration date, you will have to restart an application. For security reasons, the system purges all application data for applications not submitted within 90 days. Please note, you are able to extend the date of deletion by clicking “Extend” next to the Deletion Date on the main page of your application. If you experience difficulty, please contact snacci@wbeceast.com. Please note, you will be unable to submit a recertification application 90 days past your expiration date. If your certification lapses, you will need to submit a “New” application for certification.
