About This Approval
The Board does not pre-approve CE. Licensees should look to the CE definition and determine whether the courses relate to OT practice and be prepared to demonstrate how the credit relates if requested.
You will have no problem if your continuing education comes from educational sessions relating to occupational therapy sponsored by OTAO, AOTA, AOTA approved providers, and NBCOT or professional academic institutions relating to occupational therapy. You can receive one point per hour of attendance, with documentation.
CE Requirements for Current Licensees
- All current licensees shall obtain a minimum of 30 CE hours from Board approved categories during the two years immediately preceding the date of the license renewal
- Maintenance of current NBCOT Certification (National Board of Certification in Occupational Therapy) may be used to satisfy the requirements for CE but may not be used to satisfy the mandatory legislative requirements listed below.
Check to see if your NBCOT certification is current: https://www.nbcot.org
Additional mandatory legislative requirements:
- 1 hour on cultural competency (you choose the course) during every renewal. For more information: https://www.oregon.gov/otlb/Pages/Cultural-Competency%20CE%20Requirement.aspx
