How often does a licensee need to renew their license?

A license is issued for three (3) years (including the month the license was issued). To renew a license on active status, all continuing education requirements must be met and recorded at the commission on or before the last day of your current license term.

Can hours be taken at any time?

Yes, Continuing Education hours may be taken any time during the thirty-six (36) months during their license term.
