CID’s to be permanently expired if not renewed by June 1st
All CID's who have not renewed their Certification in 2005 and 2006 will be marked permanently "Expired" in the CCIDC office and web site database on June 1, 2007, and will be required to re-apply for Certification and also to take the CCRE if they want to be reinstated later on.

Check your stamp and I.D. card for your expiration date and make sure you are current. If there is any doubt call the CCIDC office at (760) 761-4734 or
E-mail the office to verify your status. Reactivate now in order to avoid being permanently expired, or perhaps you qualify for "Inactive Status" such as residing out of state, retired, or unemployed, for example.



CCRE Results & Next Enrollment
The results for the April 21, 2007 CCRE are in with a 61% pass rate. Out of 73 candidates 45 passed. Call the office at (760) 761-4734 if you took the April test and want to know your score, otherwise letters will go out next week.

The deadline to
register for the upcoming October 20, 2007 CCRE is September 4, 2007.
