“A licensee may earn one (1) CCU for each contact hour in continuing education courses including workshops, seminars, conferences, electronic courses, or self-study courses.” And: “No more than six (6) CCUs of employer-provided training may be counted towards the total number of required CCUs.”
Suicide assessment training
“At least once every six (6) years from date of initial license issue or from date of last completed training program in suicide assessment, treatment, and management that is pre-approved by the board, each licensee shall complete a training program in suicide assessment, treatment, and management that is pre-approved by the board.”
Records, audits, and carryover
“The required documentation shall be retained by the licensee for a minimum of one (1) year following the last day of the license renewal period for which the continuing competence activities were earned.” The board audits up to 10 percent of licensees, who have 60 days to respond (paraphrased). “A licensee may not carry over continuing competence activity CCUs from one (1) licensure period to the next.”
What this page does not do
It covers the state occupational therapy license only, and only what the official page or pages named above say. It does not cover NBCOT certification renewal, does not list fees, and does not replace the board’s own instructions. Rules change; check the board before you renew.
