Certified Phlebotomist Continuing Education Requirements 

Typically, a phlebotomy technician who is certified has to meet certain standards and requirements to keep his or her certification status current. This is usually done by maintaining their professional membership with their certification provider current and earning a certain amount of annual continuing education credits (CEU). Once they let their certification lapse, they are no longer allowed to use the issued credentials, although they will usually be allowed to continue to work in their role as a phlebotomist. It is up to each individual and their goals, the employers and their expectations, and state law whether a phlebotomist must be certified, and thus, must maintain their certification status active.

Earning Phlebotomist CEUs

Enrolling in a phlebotomy continuing education and training workshop or seminar will earn you much needed continuing education credits to keep your skills sharp and your certifications current.
