Revocation of Certification

NARM CPM Revocations

The NARM Certified Professional Midwife credential may be revoked for the following reasons:

• Falsification of Application or Recertification information to NARM or fraudulent use of the CPM credential to the public.
• Failure to participate in the Grievance Mechanism or to abide by the conditions set as a result of the Grievance Mechanism.
• Infractions of the Non-Disclosure policy, which threaten the security of the NARM Examinations.
• If the Grievance Mechanism determines that the CPM acted with dishonesty, did not use appropriate informed consent with the client, or that negligent or fraudulent actions compromised the well being of a client or client’s baby, the CPM credential must be revoked.

NARM Registered Preceptor Revocations

A midwife whose CPM is revoked is prohibited from serving as preceptor for NARM certification applicants. NARM will not accept an applicant’s experience or skills documentation if it was verified by a midwife whose CPM has been revoked.
