Renewal Season For Fiscal Year 2021 Is Here!

The Board has just mailed annual Renewal Notices, Continuing Education Transcripts, and other notices to all licensees. Please watch your mail for this important information.

We are pleased to introduce the Board's new Personal Continuing Education Application. This system can be used to update Contact Information and register required Continuing Education submissions with the Board - all through a secure portal found at the Continuing Education & License Renewal tab at our website.

This means that there's no need to mail CE records to the Board! Licensees are still required to complete and report CE activities to the Board to renew licenses each year. This new system, however, will allow licensees to input their own CEU's and access Transcript information at any time using the Personal Continuing Education Application. CE records should be maintained by licensees in case of audit.

PLEASE LOOK FOR YOUR PERSONAL REGISTRATION INFORMATION FOR THIS NEW SYSTEM IN THE RENWEAL NOTICE MAILING.

Sincerely,
Lori Rall
Executive Director
