The goal of recertification is to evaluate the continued competence of a Certified Aviation Manager. The intent of the recertification program is to help ensure that the CAM stays current with industry issues and maintaining the highest standards possible toward proper management credentials within business aviation.

Recertification includes a point system requiring a maintenance fee of $300 for NBAA Members ($500 for Non-Members) and four points of credit to be completed every 36 calendar months on the anniversary of the initial examination month, or the exam will have to be taken in its entirety. Point awards include:

  1. Two points toward recertification can be obtained by completing Professional Development Program (PDP)-approved courses.
