Once the Provisional CAMT is earned, the credential holder has two years from the date the Provisional CAMT was earned to meet the twelve-months experience requirement and upgrade to the full CAMT credential. If the credential holder fails to submit the application in PACE and meet all requirements to upgrade to the full CAMT within the two-year window, they will be required to take the course and pass the exam again.
