Within how many days must a medical technologist surrender his/her COR?

• A. 30 days
• B. 15 days
• C. 60 days
• D. 90 days

Answer: (A)

A certificate of registration is the official credential that authorizes practice, and the board expects it to be surrendered when you stop practicing or when required by regulation. The period allowed to surrender it is 30 days, which helps keep the licensure roster current and prevents use of an invalid certificate. If the surrender isn’t completed within that window, there can be administrative consequences under the regulatory rules.
