First launched in 2018, completion of the spring 2022 cohort brings the total number of individuals who have earned the BCPA to 1040.
A goal of the Patient Advocate Certification Board (PACB) is to develop standards and practices that reflect the broad knowledge and insight of our diverse professional community. The nonprofit PACB was organized in 2012 to establish ethical standards, professional competencies, and best practices for professionals who work in the emerging field of patient advocacy. PACB works with Prolydian/Examity for a fully integrated registration, exam delivery, and certification management platform.
