ETA acknowledges other industry certifications and licenses that have equivalent qualifications for assessment. Through a review process, ETA has identified the below certifications that meet ETA's standards for certification rollover. These certifications can be used to continue your career pathway and are accredited to the same ISO 17024 standard as other ETA certifications. To rollover a certification or license, it must be current by the issuing authority. If the certification or license does not expire (lifetime), then it must be rolled over within four years of obtaining it. Each certification rolled over to a comparable ETA certification will be held to the same standards to which it was created, including maintaining it according to the program guidelines.
