To achieve this, the OMHA Coaching Program introduces the Continuing Education Program [CEP] for coaches.
OMHA Coaching Certification expires every three [3] years [This applies to Coach Stream, Development 1 and Development 2 certification.Intro Coach [CHIP] and High Performance do not expire]. The OMHA launched the Continuing Education Program [CEP] for coaches during the 2007-2008 season.
Coaches can renew their certification in two [2] ways:

Meet requirements of the Continuing Education Program [CEP] and accruing 20 credit points by attending recognized Specialty Clinics, Conferences, and Seminars.
