Recertification is changing for genetic counselors. The American Board of Genetic Counseling (ABGC) now requires completion of new Continuing Competence Learning Scenarios as part of maintaining the CGC credential. These are not traditional quizzes with one correct answer. Each scenario presents a complex genetic counseling situation, followed by reflective questions, peer rationales, and educational resources designed to support lifelong learning and continuing competence. To help us understand why this change was made and what genetic counselors need to know, we are joined by three guests from ABGC: Monica Marvin and Dr. Claire Davis, co-chairs of ABGC’s Continuing Competence Committee, and Heather Rich, Executive Director at Smithbucklin, who manages ABGC operations. We break down why these Learning Scenarios were created, how the requirement works, what counts toward recertification, and how ABGC is approaching competence in a field where many real-world situations are nuanced, reflective, and shaped by context. In This Episode, We Discuss: Why ABGC reevaluated the recertification process for certified genetic counselorsWhat was missing from a recertification model based primarily on CEUs or reexaminationWhat Continuing Competence Learning Scenarios are, and what they are notHow these scenarios differ from traditional quizzes or testsWhy there may be more than one thoughtful way to respond to a complex genetic counseling situationHow panelist rationales help Diplomates understand the reasoning of other competent practitionersHow the new requirement is being phased in based on recertification cycleWhat genetic counselors in current recertification cycles need to know about voluntary scenario completionHow each scenario earns 0.1 CEU and how those CEUs fit into existing recertification requirementsHow often new Learning Scenarios will be publishedHow scenarios are developed and reviewed by ABGC’s Continuing Competence CommitteeWhy review by the DEIJ Committee is an important part of the processHow Learning Scenarios can address complex topics such as bias, cultural humility, access, identity, and patient-centered careWhether future scenarios may expand beyond patient-facing clinical roles to include genetic counselors working as medical science liaisons, variant curators, educators, and other nontraditional roles The Panel: Monica Marvin, MS, CGC, is the Program Director for the University of Michigan Genetic Counseling Graduate Program and Clinical Professor of Internal Medicine and Human Genetics at the University of Michigan.
