Section 310:345-9-2 - Continuing education requirement

(a)Continuing education requirement. Verification of fourteen (14) hours of continuing education is required every two years to renew a RPS and/or RPES registration. An applicant for reinstatement of registration shall not be reinstated without submitting evidence of completing fourteen (14) hours of continuing education within the twenty-four months preceding reinstatement. A person shall not apply for a new registration in an attempt to circumvent the requirement for continuing education.

(b)Continuing education reciprocity. The Council shall exempt a non-resident registrant from the continuing education requirement, if the individual lives in and is registered in another state with a continuing education requirement and provides the Department with evidence of current registration in that state when renewing an Oklahoma registration.

(c)Exemptions from the continuing education requirement. An individual who holds a "Life Registration" is not required to complete continuing education. Any individual who is registered as a SIT and/or ESIT is encouraged but is not required to complete continuing education. Continuing education is not required for the first year of registration as a RPS and/or RPES.

(d)Hardship waiver of continuing education. An individual may submit a hardship waiver application to the Council for the continuing education requirement. The Council has the authority to deny or approve the waiver for medical hardships, military reasons, or other reasons deemed appropriate by the Council.
