Wyoming OT and OTA license renewal and continuing education
Wyoming Occupational Therapy Board rules, Chapter 8, state: “Each licensee must complete twenty-four (24) hours of CE every two years.”
Quoted from official pages checked November 12, 2026. Confirm current requirements, fees, and dates on those sites. This page is not legal advice and does not guarantee eligibility, certification, or licensure.
Source read on November 12, 2026: Chapter 8: Renewal on the Wyoming Secretary of State’s rules site, effective May 10, 2023.
Cycle
“Licenses shall expire on July 31 of each year unless renewed under these rules.” “All licensees shall report their number of CE hours every even numbered year in conjunction with the licensee's application for renewal.”
First renewal
Someone licensed in an even-numbered year before July 31 doesn’t report CE that year, and someone licensed in an odd-numbered year reports 12 hours at the first even-year renewal (paraphrased).
What counts
Live and online courses, college courses beyond degree requirements, written courses, conferences, and Level II or doctoral student supervision can count, with supervision capped at 12 hours per period (paraphrased). Orientation, non-OT employment training, facility documentation training, and CPR and First Aid don’t count, and no more than 4 hours may come from classes under one hour (paraphrased).
Audits
Each even year, 10 percent of licensees are randomly selected to submit verification (paraphrased).
Required topics
None named. The official source this page quotes sets the CE hours but does not name a required topic (read November 12, 2026). Other state laws can still apply, so confirm with the board before you renew.

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.
