2 Clock Hours – Ethics Continuing Education Requirement

§741.162(c) Twenty clock hours (two CEUs) shall be required to renew a license issued for a two-year term. The holder of dual licenses, meaning both a speech-language pathology license and an audiology license, shall be required to earn 30 clock hours (three CEUs) to renew a license issued for a two-year term. Effective for renewals in May 2009 and after, a licensee must have had a minimum of two clock hours in ethics per renewal period.

Extension of the Two Hour Ethics Requirement – at the February 27th board meeting the board members voted to extend the grace period for the ethics CEU requirement through December 31, 2009. Licensees who renew between May 2009 and December 2009 will have until December 31, 2009 to acquire the two clock hours in ethics for the previous renewal period, if they have not done so by the month of their renewal. These clock hours in ethics earned during the grace period will not count toward the ethics requirement for their next renewal in 2011.

Coming in January 1, 2010, the Board will be unveiling the new Jurisprudence Examination – Details to come
