ASCP BOC Updates:

ASCP BOC Website Update

The BOC is constantly looking for ways to improve our services and offerings, including the information available on our website. Please take this three question survey to share your feedback with us.

eLinks Publication Changes

In the past few years, the ASCP BOC Program Director’s Facebook group has become a place for the BOC to share timely information, and for educators to seek assistance from each other. We love to see the conversations that emerge, and appreciate the collegiality that is so readily visible. Because this has become such a productive space, the need for the eLinks newsletter has changed. Beginning with the Spring 2023 edition, highlights from the year will be featured in eLinks biannually.

Improved Online Application Timeline for Student Applicants from Accredited Programs*

Beginning in late February 2023, the ASCP BOC implemented operations enhancements on your behalf, assuring an even more effective timeline for applicants to schedule their ASCP BOC certification exam.

Background: Applicants from accredited laboratory professional programs (for all ASCP BOC certification exams) are automatically moved to the Director’s EEV for program verification within 24 hours of a paid application being submitted. Previously, this timeline could have taken up to a few weeks.

What this means for you: Students of accredited programs are able to schedule their certification exam as soon as their Program Director verifies the applicant’s successful program completion through the EEV.

This makes it even more imperative that the Program Director sign off on the EEV only when they are certain that the student will successfully complete all components of the program by the date indicated.

Please note: Applicants are still required to request official transcript(s) be sent from their educational institution(s) to the ASCP BOC. A student who completes your program and passes the certification examination will only become certified once an official transcript(s) verifying they have met the academic requirements has been received and processed by the ASCP BOC. (Please note: applicants for HT Route 1 do not need to submit transcripts.)

Did you know your students can view the status of their application at any time?

Upon initial submission, an applicant receives a confirmation email and their application is put into “Received” status. At any time, an applicant can log in to their ASCP account and view the status of their application.

After all supporting documents have been reviewed, any deficiencies will be identified. Any time the status of an application is changed, the applicant receives notification to log in to their ASCP account for specific details and next steps.

Update from the October 2023 BOC Board of Governors Meeting

The ASCP Board of Certification Board of Governors met October 21-22, 2023, in Long Beach, CA. A few motions were passed that impact eligibility requirements, as summarized below. Notification of upcoming CMP fee increases, and all updated eligibility requirements, will be available on the ASCP BOC website by early 2024. www.ascp.org/certification

Updates to Eligibility Requirements

  • Qualification in Biorepository, QBRS
    • A new route, route 7, has been added for graduates of Master’s level programs in biobanking and biorepository science. This route will be available in early January of 2024. See http://www.ascp.org/boc/qbrs for complete information.
  • Qualification in Donor Phlebotomy, QDP
    • The Qualification in Donor Phlebotomy will only be offered until June 30, 2024. All applications must be received by April 30th to take this examination. See http://www.ascp.org/boc/qdp for complete information.

Upcoming Fee Increases

  • Credential Maintenance Program (CMP) Fees – as of July 1, 2024:
    • CMP fees for all ASCP and ASCPi credentials (certifications and qualifications) will increase by $5.
    • CMP fees for additional credentials (certifications and qualifications) will increase by $5.
    • CMP reinstatement fees for all ASCP and ASCPi credentials (certifications and qualifications) will increase by $10.
    • Scholarship pricing for resource limited countries will remain unchanged.

Revised Examination Content Guidelines

The Examination Content Guidelines for the below exams administered beginning January 1, 2024, have been revised. The revised content guidelines are currently available on the Get Credentialed page of the BOC website.

New Credential – Diplomate in Medical Laboratory Immunology, DMLI(ASCP)

The new PhD level Immunology exam is now available for application and testing; the exam was launched April 1, 2023. See www.ascp.org/boc/dmli for complete information. It is important to note that CMS has approved the DMLI exam as qualifying doctoral individuals for directing high complexity labs. See www.cms.gov/clia/certficiation-boards for further information.

NEW in 2024: Increase in Dedicated CMP Points

CMP requirements will be revised to increase from 2 to 8 points in the area of certification for the following categories: BB, C, CG, CT, H, HT, HTL, M, and MB. This will be in effect for all certification categories noted above expiring in January 2024 and moving forward, regardless of when you submit your completed online declaration form. This does not increase the overall total CMP points required.

Timeline for Processing of Transcripts

All electronic transcripts must be manually downloaded and connected to an application before processing and review can begin. ASCP BOC staff receive a high volume of transcripts daily, particularly during the months of March – August.

  • Once received by the ASCP BOC, electronic transcripts will be downloaded within 2 weeks.
  • From September – February, allow up to 6 weeks after a transcript has been downloaded for processing.
  • From March – August, allow up to 8 weeks after a transcript has been downloaded for processing.

Please remind your students not to submit duplicate documents before this time has elapsed. Once submitted, students’ documents are in queue for staff review and action.

The timelines above only apply to transcripts that are submitted correctly. For complete information, visit the ASCP BOC website and see “Submitting Transcripts” and “Was My Transcript Submitted Correctly?” Please note that ASCP Customer Relations will not be able to provide information regarding the status of submitted transcripts.

Important note for Histotechnology Program Directors: Students who complete a NAACLS accredited HT program, and apply for the HT(ASCP) examination under Route 1, do NOT need to submit a transcript to the ASCP BOC. Route 1 requires only completion of your program, which you verify through the EEV. If you have any questions, please email us at PDInfo@ascp.org.

Promoting Nomenclature

The ASCP Board of Certification (BOC) and the American Society of Clinical Laboratory Science (ASCLS) with the support of the ASCP BOC sponsoring and participating societies collaborated to write the position paper Standardizing the Professional Title of Medical Laboratory Scientists The paper serves to address the inconsistency of professional nomenclature and the impact this has had on the profession.

Following publication of the paper, the ASCP BOC Board of Governors created the Nomenclature Taskforce to make recommendations for gaining acceptance and adoption of a unified title of Medical Laboratory Scientist (MLS). The Taskforce identified the complexities to be addressed and has published those recommendations in a new paper Promoting the Medical Laboratory Science Profession through Standardized Titles.

The ASCP BOC is moving to standardize nomenclature and all MT(ASCP) credentialed individuals may begin using the MLS(ASCP) credential immediately. Beginning in 2023, primary source verification of ASCP certification will show MLS(ASCP) certification rather than MT(ASCP).

The Credential Maintenance Program (CMP) will continue to be voluntary for those individuals whose credential will be transitioning from MT to MLS as they were originally ASCP certified prior to 2004 and the required CMP.

What’s in a Name?

Everything important to our profession -- professional identity, as well as recognition from the healthcare team, administration, government agencies, and the public. The lack of understanding affects recruitment and retention in the profession. It is time to move to one name -- Medical Laboratory Scientist.

Join us now and take the pledge at www.ascp.org/boc/i-am-mls
I pledge to:

  • Refer to myself as a Medical Laboratory Scientist (MLS) instead of Medical Technologist (Med Tech, MT) or Clinical Laboratory Scientist (CLS)
  • Refer to myself and colleagues as MLS, not as technologist or tech
  • Work with my managers, administrators, Human Resources (as applicable) at my organization to revise job titles to MLS
  • Tell at least one student, community member or colleague about the role and value of MLS

Online Application Process for All ASCP BOC Examinations

Beginning in mid-March, 2022, applicants who are required to submit completed training and experience documentation forms, as well as Letters of Authenticity, must upload them within the application itself. These documents, if required, must be uploaded before the application can be submitted.

Applicants will continue to request that official transcript(s) be sent from their educational institution(s) to the ASCP BOC. Program Directors will continue to verify a student’s eligibility through the EEV; there are no changes to these processes.

ASCP Scholarships Available 2024

ASCP Foundation scholarship and grant applications will be available in early 2024 for programs, lab students and phlebotomy students.

Sharing of PPR Information

The ASCP BOC would like to remind program directors that the Program Performance Report (PPR) is a paid subscription service meant for use by Program Directors and Program Administrators only; specific data from the PPR is not to be shared with the public. The information contained in the PPR should be handled in a confidential manner which respects the rights of the individual whose scores are reported. Individual student data, subtest means, scaled score comparisons, and the histogram are not public information. This information should not be shared publicly, including for recruitment efforts or marketing purposes.

Any data that is shared with accrediting bodies or program administration must be anonymized and aggregated where possible. As an outcomes measure for accreditation purposes, program directors may publicly share overall program pass rates (i.e. Our graduates have a X year average pass rate of XX percent on national certification exams; the national average is XX percent).

Impact of COVID Survey

Last year, the ASCP Board of Certification Research and Development Committee prepared the Impact of COVID survey to gather information on how the COVID-19 pandemic impacted educational programs. The survey was designed for participation by all graduates and program directors from NAACLS, CAAHEP, and ABHES accredited/approved programs.

Two papers were written based on the results from the survey. One paper focusing on the program directors’ perspective was published in the early Fall this year. The other paper focusing on the graduates’ perspective has been submitted and accepted, with publication hopefully at the end of the year.

We hope the results of this survey will give the BOC insight into how COVID-19 has affected programs. As a graduate or program director in the laboratory profession, you are our profession’s future. Thank you to those who participated in this important project, and everyone for all you do.

My BOC Credential Story

ASCP BOC has relaunched "My BOC Credential Story" which aims to showcase the incredible contributions of BOC credentialed laboratory professionals. The campaign seeks to collect and share personal narratives from individuals who have earned their BOC credentials, highlighting how their credentials have impacted their careers and patient care.

Stories will be featured on the BOC’s social media channels and will celebrate the personal and professional achievements of BOC credentialed individuals.

Lab professionals with BOC credentials are encouraged to share their experiences and journeys. Submissions can be made via email to bocfacebook@ascp.org. This initiative is not just about individual stories; it's about illustrating the broader impact and value of the BOC in healthcare. By sharing these stories, the ASCP BOC aims to inspire current and future lab professionals and emphasize the significance of their work to both patients and the healthcare field.

Ethics and the Appropriate Use of Social Media

ASCP BOC Examination Questions - Copyright and Ethics Violations

ASCP Board of Certification (BOC) examinations are protected by copyright law. When your students apply for certification, they agree to adhere to the following statement stating, in part:

“I understand that this examination and all test questions are the exclusive property of the Board of Certification and are protected by copyright law. Because of the confidential nature of these copyright materials, I agree not to retain, copy, disclose or reveal any part of these examination materials . . .”

The ASCP BOC monitors the web and social media sites regularly for individuals or groups who claim to have questions from ASCP BOC examinations. These are sometimes called recalls, remembrances or brain dumps. Individuals who contribute to these sites, or share examination items in any manner, are infringing on the ASCP BOC’s exclusive copyrights.

Be aware that students who reveal specific information from the examination, such as recalling examination questions and responses, to their peers and instructors are committing copyright infringement. If certificants are found to be in violation, their certification will be revoked; all individuals found to be in violation will be barred permanently from taking any ASCP BOC examination.

Ethics Reminders

Beginning in 2020, an ethics reminder has been added to all exams upon republication. Examinees must agree to a statement at the end of their examination that they will not share exam items and that they understand this is a violation of copyright. Also, beginning in January 2020, applicants receive an email the day after their exam reminding them that they have signed multiple pledges stating that they will not share exam material. In these reminders it is clearly laid out that if examinees share this type of information, and are caught doing so, they may have their certification revoked and be permanently barred from taking an ASCP BOC examination in the future.

Integrity Pledges

Please remind your students not to share information from the examination with anyone. Several program directors have instituted Integrity Pledges that students sign which explicitly state that sharing of exam content is an ethical violation. Please email us at PDInfo@ascp.org if you would like examples of these pledges.

Posting of Wall Certificates on Social Media

Please inform your students not to post images of their wall certificates or ASCP BOC documentation on social media. While we appreciate their enthusiasm and pride in becoming certified, these images can be used by unscrupulous individuals to misrepresent themselves as being certified. To protect the integrity of ASCP BOC credentials and records, and for patient safety and welfare, it is important for individuals to protect their certificates from misuse. Please share the following with your students:

  • Do not share your wall certificate, score report, or ASCP Member ID card (if applicable) with anyone.
  • Do not post a copy or image of your wall certificate, score report, or ASCP Member ID card (if applicable) on the Internet or social media.

Program Completion

Review the Updated Online Application

Before your students begin to apply, we encourage you to review the online application in order to better answer questions from your students. Updates were made to the application in March 2022; while the process for students who have completed a program remain the same, a few screens may look different. Log in to your ASCP account to apply without entering payment information. We encourage you to take screen shots to share with students and highlight any potential difficulties. Once saved, your application will remain in your account for six months. In addition, make sure to watch the video that guides applicants through the online application process at www.ascp.org/certification If you need assistance or have questions, email us at PDInfo@ascp.org.

Applying for an ASCP BOC Certification Exam – When and How Students Should Apply

Students should apply for an ASCP BOC certification exam no more than six weeks before program completion. If a student is uncertain about when they will be able to complete all components of the program, including clinical rotations, they should hold off on applying until they have a clearer timeframe.

Please make sure that your students know the correct date of their program completion; it is not necessarily the same as their graduation date. Students should enter their program completion date in the online application. Have students watch the application video, available here: www.ascp.org/certification

Applications are processed on a continual basis, as they are received. See above for the most up to date information regarding timelines

Exam Eligibility Verification (EEV) Report*

Please remember to check your email for notifications of Examination Eligibility Verification (EEV) Reports to review. You may log in to your individual ASCP account from anywhere you have access to the Internet.

It is imperative that program directors do not sign off on a student's eligibility until they are certain the student will complete all components of the program, including clinical requirements and final exams, by the program end date indicated EEV.

If you have already signed off on a student’s eligibility and have since learned they will not complete their program by the date indicated, please immediately email Angela Nunn, Manager of Application Processing, at angela.nunn@ascp.org.

Please note: If the program end date entered by the student is within a week after their actual program completion date, it does not need to be updated on the EEV. Updating a program end date can add up to a week to the processing time of the application, so please be sure your students are aware of their correct program end date.

Your students will not be able to schedule appointments to take the examination until you sign off on their eligibility through the EEV.

Scheduling Exams at a Pearson VUE Testing Location

We understand that you would like your students to test as soon as possible after program completion. As soon as they receive their Admission Notification, your students should go online to schedule their exam through the Pearson VUE website.

All available testing dates and locations will be found through the Pearson Vue website. Candidates should schedule the first available exam appointment they can secure and continue to check back via their VUE web account regularly to see if there have been any cancellations. Testing appointments are filled on a first-come, first-served basis.

It is the candidate’s responsibility to review the latest health and safety requirements at Pearson VUE test centers before appearing for their scheduled exam as requirements may change quickly.

Use of Pass/Fail Grades*

We understand that some institutions are investigating the use of Pass/Fail grades during this time. Note that the ASCP BOC has always accepted the use of “Pass” on an official transcript in lieu of a passing grade, provided the quarter or semester hour credits assigned to the course are also indicated.

Applications and Documentation

Submitting Official Transcripts*

The ASCP Board of Certification (BOC) is requesting that all official transcripts be submitted electronically. Official transcripts for U.S. categories must be sent directly from a student’s academic institution to the ASCP BOC.

If submitting electronic transcripts, please make sure your students are aware of the security features your institution implements. Official transcripts must remain accessible for the processing of an application and maintained as part of an applicant’s permanent record. If access to an electronic transcript expires, in order to complete their application, your students may be required to purchase and submit another official transcript to the ASCP BOC.

If a student’s institution utilizes either Parchment or National Student Clearinghouse, students should choose “ASCP” as the receiving institution during the order process. If the electronic transcript will be sent directly from the registrar’s office, it should be sent to Transcripts.boc@ascp.org.

For complete information on how to submit transcripts, go to the ASCP BOC website; under “Submit Documentation” choose “Submitting Official Transcript(s).”

If your institution is unable to submit transcripts electronically, please mail them to the address below. Please note that there will be an additional delay of 2 weeks in the processing of all transcripts submitted through the mail.

ASCP BOC
Attention: Jackie Sanders
33 W. Monroe St, Suite 1600
Chicago, IL 60603

Submitting Documentation*

Documentation forms submitted through the mail will not be accepted or processed. Beginning March of 2022, appropriate documentation forms, and letters of authenticity, must be uploaded as PDF files at the time of application. See the ASCP BOC website for further information.

Mailing Payment*

We understand that some programs pay the application fee for multiple students at one time. For complete information, see the Program Director’s section of the website. Payment information, invoices, and checks, should be mailed to:

ASCP Board of Certification
3462 Eagle Way
Chicago, IL 60678

Exam Results

Immediately after completing the certification examination, your students will see their preliminary results on the computer screen, indicated as “Pass” or “Fail.” Within four business days, students will receive an email notification to log in to see their score report if their transcript has been fully processed by the ASCP BOC.

Any student who takes the certification examination without submitting a final academic transcript at the time of application will not receive access to their score report. As program director, encourage these students to submit their final transcripts verifying completion of the academic requirements within one year of their examination date. As a courtesy, monthly email reminders will be sent to these students reminding them to submit their official transcript to the BOC office. If their transcript is not received within one year of their examination date, their examination score will be invalidated and they will not be certified. To become certified, they would need to submit a new application and fee, and sit for the examination.

Students who have failed the exam are given subtest scores in order to help them focus their studying. Subtest scores are not provided to students who passed the exam because it does not serve a useful purpose, and we ask that you do not share this level of information with them.
