MessageSince there seems to be some confusion about which BOC professionals are qualified to accept the ABC offer, I am forwarding to the list the following email from Lisa Rascoe of the National Office along with my original question. Please note that any BOC members who accept ABC membership must have been in good standing with BOC on March 5, 2004.

Hello Dr. Price, at this point, ABC is offering certification to all BOC orthotists/prosthetists that are in good standing as of March 5, 2004. The application is good through the end of the year.
Let me know if you have any other questions.

Is the offer to BOC practitioners open-ended, i.e.; is there a cut-off date? Is the offer only for those currently in good standing with BOC, or will those who take the BOC exam in the future have the opportunity to convert their BOC certification to an ABC credential?
