CONTINUING EDUCATION
Please refer to Rule 102 for the CE Requirements.

When you are audited, you must submit a listing of all continuing education courses completed during the previous year AND proof of completion documentation for each course. Failure to submit the required documentation may result in Board action against your right to licensure.
