Cycle

  • Deadlines are usually tied to an individual expiration date, birth month, or a fixed calendar date
  • Confirm your exact date on the board portal or public roster

CE hours

  • Most renewals require board-approved continuing education or refresher training
  • Hour totals and topic mix (code, law, safety, business) are class-specific
  • Use only approved providers — unapproved hours often do not count
