Deadline rule

Must attend an ISSN Conference at least once every two years and keep ISSN membership active (no fixed calendar deadline stated).

FISSN maintenance requires: (1) attending an ISSN Conference at least once every two years, (2) maintaining an active ISSN membership, (3) consistent support of ISSN goals/objectives, and (4) good-faith efforts to publish in JISSN. No numeric CEU total is stated for the FISSN itself; the published 6 CEU/year (or 30 CEU/5 years) requirement applies to the CISSN and ISSN-SNS certifications.

CEU recognition

Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics (AND), NSCA, ACSM, NASM, ACE, IDEA and others — approved ceu provider
ISSN conferences are stated to be available for continuing education credits from these associations (stated on the CISSN page).
Non-ISSN CE providers (e.g., NSCA) — petition accepted
For CISSN/ISSN-SNS CEU maintenance, other approved non-ISSN events count for 3 CEUs, approved case by case; unlikely to count if no ISSN conference/webinar is ever attended.
