We’ve seen your questions and concerns about the new Maintenance of Certification (MOC) requirements, and we want to be clear about why these changes are happening.

The short answer: patient safety and accreditation.

To keep your ARDMS credentials globally respected, we must meet ANSI-ISO accreditation to confirm that your credentials meet international standards for quality and fairness, which require a learning assessment beyond CMEs alone.

That’s why we created Knowledge Confirmation — short quarterly quizzes designed with input from sonographers to support learning without requiring you to retake full board exams.

What this means for you:

⬇️ CMEs reduced from 30 → 25
🎯 Unlimited attempts with resources and explanations
⏲️ Short quizzes clinically focused
⭐ Instant results to track your progress

Our goal is to support your growth, help you deliver the best care to patients, and protect the value of your hard-earned credentials.

We encourage you to explore the new quizzes in the SKILLs platform ahead of the January 1, 2026 launch date. For more details, FAQs, and resources, visit the MOC Hub here: https://www.inteleos.org/moc.

ARDMS is committed to walking this journey with you. Together, we can move healthcare forward.
