Certification

Navigate this Section

EBAA is the nationally-recognized certifying body for eye bank professionals.

EBAA offers two certification options for eye bank professionals, the Certified Eye Banker – Technical (CEBT) and the Certified Eye Banker (CEB). The CEBT and CEB designations signify a strong understanding of EBAA Medical Standards and Procedures, applicable regulations, and overall eye banking practices. EBAA offers the opportunity to attain certification twice a year. Individuals who become certified as a CEBT or CEB, may maintain their certification by earning a required number of continuing education units (CEUs) and recertifying every three years.

For more information about certification, click the appropriate link below.

Certification Exam

The Eye Bank Association of America offers the opportunity to attain status as a Certified Eye Banker – Technical (CEBT) or Certified Eye Banker (CEB) through an electronic Certification examination administered by an outside educational testing agency.

Recertification

Individuals who passed the EBAA Certification Exam, are certified for three years. After the initial three year period, it is the responsibility of the individual to ensure that their CEBT or CEB status does not expire.

“To be a part of the mission to restore sight and enhance the lives of others is an amazing journey, and one I am grateful to be on.”
Letisha Thakoordeen
Lions Eye Bank for Long Island
“Fostering knowledge that I can pass to others so that we can continue the legacy of restoring sight.”
Benjamin Watts
