# What are the requirements for THW recertification?

1. **Schedule a Meeting:**
   - Contact support@communitydoulaprogram.org at least 9 months before your certification expires to schedule a meeting.
2. **Oral Health Training:**
   - Complete the state-provided training available [here](https://www.oregon.gov/oha/EI/Pages/THW%20Oral%20Health%20Requirements.aspx)
     - At the end, there is an option to fill out a certificate with your name – *make sure you do this* and send it to support@communitydoulaprogram.org
3. **CPR Certification:**
   - Ensure your CPR certification is up to date for Adults, Children, and Infants. Certification is available through the Red Cross. The online training is available at [this link](https://www.redcross.org/take-a-class/classes/adult-child-and-baby-first-aid%2Fcpr%2Faed-online/a6R3o000001vv3D.html), and you can search for in-person training through [this link](https://www.redcross.org/take-a-class/cpr/cpr-training/cpr-classes); these should both be valid for 2 years. 
4. **Complete 20 Continuing Education Units (CEUs):**
   - **3 CEUs** in Suicide Prevention
     - OHA-sponsored training available [here](https://www.oregon.gov/oha/EI/Pages/Suicide-Prevention-Training.aspx) 
   - **17 CEUs** of your choice
     - As you complete your CEUs, obtain proof of completion (e.g., a certificate) send it to support@communitydoulaprogram.org. You can send them individually as you complete them, but they must be submitted at least 3 months before your expiration date.
5. **THW Application:**
   - Once your CEUs are completed let support@communitydoulaprogram.org know and they will email you the application. Fill it out electronically and submit it as instructed.
