How to read this

Counts are active credentials only, straight from the Registry’s “Download All Records” file.
The 3+ year column is an estimate. Active credentials only. 3+ year estimate = active Certified Residential or Certified General credentials whose current effective date is at least 3 years old and with no listed disciplinary action, rounded to the nearest 10. Some states report the latest renewal date as the effective date; for those no estimate is shown.
It can’t tell who has taken the supervisor course or who is willing to take a trainee. That’s what verified supervisor listings are for.
Trainees aren’t in the Registry, so they aren’t counted here.
