Keeping Your AIRS Certifications Current
All AIRS certifications are valid for 2 years from the date you first pass your exam. To retain the AIRS designations after this initial period, you must pass a re-certification exam that reflects the latest tactics and strategies reflected in AIRS training.

You are under no obligation to take either course again. The price for a single ticket to the CIR, CDR or ACIR re-certification exam is $195. This fee includes a key concepts outline of the subjects that will be covered in the exam, is non-refundable, and only allows the ticket holder a single attempt at passing the exam.

As an AIRS alum, you may attend SearchLab, Certified Diversity Recruiter or XtremeLab workshops at a reduced rate to refresh your skills. Should you elect to re-take the course, there will be no additional charge for the certification exam, and you may take the exam until you pass. There is a four-week waiting period to re-take the exam after two unsuccessful attempts.

For more information on certifications or being re-certified, contact a Training Solutions expert.
