Continuing education

You may not renew your license without completing the required continuing education or obtaining a waiver or extension from the Board. If you have not completed the required CEUs, but have extenuating circumstances that you believe warrant a waiver or extension, please email the Board at [email protected] with your request for a waiver or extension and attach supporting documentation (e.g., a physician’s note). Please be aware that waivers of the continuing education requirement will be granted only in extreme situations. Please allow 7-10 days for your request to be reviewed. 30 CEUs are required for each licensure cycle, unless you are in you first licensure cycle when your CEUs are prorated based upon your issue date (1/1/even yr-6/30/even yr = 22.5, 7/1/even yr-12/31/even yr = 15, 1/1/odd yr-6/30/odd year = 7.5).
