Vermont regulators place this credential inside their licensing framework, which classifies the training track as "Certificate/Degree".

Budget $100 to get started on a 2-year cycle. Continuing education is not a listed requirement for this profession in Vermont, so the annualized maintenance burden is lower than in states that mandate ongoing hours.
