Texas Board of Occupational Therapy Examiners

All licensees must complete a minimum of 24 CE hours every two years during the period of time the license is current in order to renew the license. Licensees must provide proof of completion of contact hours at the Board’s request. A license may be renewed up to three months prior to the expiration date. 

Per the Board, our courses meet the requirements under the CE category of ‘Other Acceptable Activities’. See the Texas OT Rules for more information: https://ptot.texas.gov/ot-acts-and-rules/

Special CE Requirements:

• Training on Human Trafficking. As part of the minimum hours of required continuing education for each renewal, licensees must complete a training course on human trafficking that is approved by the Health and Human Services Commission. Up to a maximum of 2 CE hours are pre-approved for a training course on human trafficking. Additional CE credit may be earned for a training course exceeding 2 hours if the additional hours meet the requirements of Chapter 367 on Continuing Education.
