  2. Complete the complaint form found in the Disciplinary Procedures section of the Code.

Complaints are thoroughly reviewed by the certification team and NYCB Ethics Committee.

Certification affirms a professional’s credibility, competence, and ethical practice, based on role-specific competencies, relevant training, and Board-established standards such as age, education, experience, and exams.

Our efforts are rooted in principles of justice, diversity, equity, and inclusion.
