Renewal must be completed every two years; specialists must re-test on the updated materials to remain current.

OncoVie CES renewal is required every 2 years: renewers receive the latest CES materials (curriculum updated every two years) and must sit for and pass the CES renewal examination to update the advanced qualification for another two years. Evidence describes ongoing education (private CES Facebook group, webinars) during the qualification period but states no numeric CEU/contact-hour requirement for renewal.
