Sixteen states have their own page so far. For the rest, the picker takes you to all courses. Check with your state board before you count a course.
Details
Your license renews every year on or before your birthday. CE is reported every 3 years.
Your CE due date is listed on Provider Credential Search. The jurisprudence exam counts as 1 hour in your first cycle only.
The board does not pre-approve courses. Courses must fit the WAC 246-828-510 categories. Keep records for 4 years.
Washington requires 2 hours of health equity training. Find free courses that may fit.
