Tennessee Registry of Interpreters for the Deaf - Certification Maintenance Program

Once certified, members must maintain their certifications through continuing education and membership in RID. Continuing education units (or "CEUs") are completed and reported to the RID Certification Maintenance Program (CMP) . Each CEU represents 10 hours. Over a four year cycle, a certified member must complete at least 8.0 CEUs.

Through TRID, there are four ways a member can earn CEUs:

*Sponsor Initiated Workshops

*PINRA (Participant Initiated Non-RID Activities)

*Academic Coursework

*Independent Studies
