This year marks the 50th anniversary of the CDA®. As part of the celebration, the Council for Professional Recognition is offering a limited-time CDA® Renewal Amnesty Program. This program provides an opportunity for anyone with a CDA expiration date as far back as January 1, 2020, to complete the renewal process and make their credential active again.

The program is available from February 1, 2025 to July 31, 2025 (11:59 PM EST). All applications and payments ($125) must be submitted online to the Council for Professional Recognition by July 31, 2025 (11:59 PM EST). No exceptions or extensions will be granted.

Start preparing today by downloading the free CDA® Renewal Procedures Guide available on the Council’s website. The CDA® Renewal Procedures Guide provides detailed information about the renewal requirements. Be sure to allow yourself enough time to obtain the requirements needed to take advantage of this limited-time opportunity.
