Q: How often do I have to renew my ASSE 6000 license?

Q: How do I renew my license?
For ASSE 6000 licenses, you will need to take a recertification course that meets all of the requirements of ASSE 6000 and covering the changes made to new editions of NFPA 99, then send your course certificate along with your renewal application to MGA. For your ASME IX braze renewal, you’ll receive an email prior to renewal with a form and instructions.

You can look up your certification in the ‘Credential Lookup’ portal here.

MGA renewals are always either January 31st or July 31st. Your renewal will need to be completed prior to those dates depending on your current expiration. There is a grace period allowed, but please contact MGA if you will be unable to complete your renewal on time. After your expiration date, your license is no longer considered valid.

Q: Do all states accept the MGA license?
We recommend that you check with the authority having jurisdiction in your state to see if they have specific licensing agency requirements. Most states do not, but there are some states who do.
