ABGC accredited programs must submit an annual report along with an annual accreditation fee (see fee table). Checks are made payable to the American Board of Genetic Counseling and sent to the ABGC Administrative Office, PO Box 14216, Lenexa, KS 66285, with the accreditation report. The ABGC Executive Office will distribute the annual reporting form to all programs with any accreditation status in early March each year. The annual report and fee are due by May 31st each year. Years in which a program is under review the annual accreditation fee should be submitted with the porgram's self-study due by January 2nd.
The fees support the administrative activities associated with the accreditation of programs and the site visits that are required for full accreditation/re-accreditation. Any program unable to meet a deadline is encouraged to contact the ABGC Executive Office, as a late fee is applied to any documents/fees not submitted by the appropriate deadline.
