NCBTMB membership needed for Illinois license?

Does anyone know if NCBTMB membership is a requirement for renewal of Illinois license. I seem to remember hearing that it was but can't find any info in that regard.

Thanks for any info.

I don't know, you would have to call IDPFR to find out. I would only assume that it's required, since it is to attain a state license.

NCBTMB certification is NOT required for renewal of Illinois license. It 's not required even for when you first get your license.

It is not required to renew. I did have to take the test to gain licensure in 2005, so just curious what you have to take now for new license, if not NCBTMB. Does anyone know? Also, what are some of your thoughts on the NCBTMB renewel and the other national certifications out there?
