CM By Exam

General	In lieu of submitting a CM Worksheet, a CIH® may take the exam during the three exam periods immediately preceding their certification expiration date (on the paper certificate). Successful examination earns 40 CM points in Category 6 and the CIH is recertified. A CM Worksheet does not need to be submitted.
Eligibility	To be eligible to sit for the exam (for CM), the CIH must: Be currently certified in the Comprehensive Practice of industrial hygiene Be in good standing with ABIH® (i.e., current on fees and no ethics complaints) Have completed at least two hours of ethics training during their CM cycle Have not participated in an ABIH-sponsored Item Writing Workshop within the previous three years Submit the CM By Exam Request Form Pay the examination fee
Exam Windows	CIHs can only take the exam during the normal exam windows of April-May and October-November. CIHs are not held to the deadline dates for new Applicants: February 1 and August 1.
CAIH & Aspects	Since the Aspects examinations and CAIH® examinations have been discontinued, maintaining certification by taking these exams is no longer an option. Diplomates could apply for the comprehensive exam if their current work experience qualifies.
