Maintenance is a personal and public statement about your commitment to the profession and to your students.
The College of Education and Human Development (CEHD) at George Mason University, partners with the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards to offer graduate credit to teachers who renew their Achievement status when it expires after ten years.
To register at George Mason for Maintenance of National Board Certification credits, please complete the enrollment form and submit your payment using the link below. You will need to upload a copy of your certificate and maintenance award letter from the National Board with your enrollment form.
Enrollment deadlines are May 1st for spring, July 20th for summer, and December 1st for fall. Forms received after the deadline will be applied to the next semester.
Once all documentation is received and our processes are complete (may take three weeks), you will be formally registered for the graduate credit course. You will receive an email that the credits have been awarded, and directions will be given for how to download and/or print a transcript reflecting the credits. Please do not request a transcript until you have received confirmation of enrollment and your grade from George Mason University.
