Utah SLP license renewal and continuing education
Utah’s Division of Professional Licensing (DOPL) states that speech-language pathologist licenses “expire on May 31 of odd years,” and that renewal requires 20 hours of continuing professional education and a current national certification.

Sources read on November 12, 2026: DOPL’s Renew an Audiology License page, which covers both audiologist and speech-language pathologist licenses, and DOPL’s speech-language pathologist renewal form (PDF).
Cycle
The renewal page states: “Audiologist & Speech-Language Pathologist licenses expire on May 31 of odd years.” It also says DOPL mails a renewal notice at least 60 days before expiration (paraphrased).
Requirements before renewing
The page lists: “Have completed 20 hours of continuing professional education.” and “Maintained a current national certification.”
The renewal form states: “Under Utah Admin. Code R156-41-304, during each two-year renewal cycle, you must have completed not fewer than 20-hours of continuing education directly related to your professional practice. If you received your initial license during the current renewal cycle, you must only complete a pro-rata amount of continuing education hours for the time you were actually licensed.”
Documentation
The form states: “DO NOT submit documentation of your continuing education unless you are audited and requested to do so.”
The rule itself (R156-41-304) was not read for this page; the Utah administrative rules site did not return it when fetched.
What this page does not do
It covers the speech-language pathologist license only, and only what the official page or pages named above say. It does not list fees, does not cover school credentials issued by a state education agency, and does not replace the board’s own instructions. Rules change; check the board before you renew.
