Fees
The Art Therapy Credentials Board awards and maintains credentials and a national examination for board certification and state licensure. As a non-profit, all fees cover the costs of maintaining the credentials, board certification, examination program, the national registry, and The Code of Ethics, Conduct, and Disciplinary Procedures.
All fees and fee waiver allowances shall be established by the ATCB board of directors and reviewed annually by December 31st. Due to extraordinary and unprecedented circumstances, the board of directors can modify financial hardship requirements as necessary. A financial waiver request can only be done on an individual applicant or credential holder level. The ATCB cannot accept third-party payment of fees on behalf of the credential holder. This transaction must be between the third party and the credential holder.
