Section 22F .0207 - RECORDING CEU CREDIT
(a) A licensee shall have proof of attendance in order to record CEU credit with the Board:
(1) For pre-approved CE Programs, the program sponsor shall provide each licensee in attendance with the approved CE Program Report of Attendance. At the conclusion of each session, the program sponsor's representative or the session speaker shall sign the CE Program Report of Attendance of each licensee in attendance in the space provided for attendance verification. Alternatively, a program sponsor may initial or rubberstamp the space for session attendance verification after each session and then sign the bottom of each page of the Report of Attendance at the end of the program; or
(2) If the CE Program is not pre-approved, the licensee shall print a generic CE Program Report of Attendance from the Board website and take it to the program to complete the session titles as listed on the program sponsor's agenda presented to participants on the day of the continuing education event. The licensee shall obtain the hand-written signature of the program sponsor's representative or the session speaker on the Report of Attendance at the end of each session.
(b) The program applicant shall submit a roster of licensees who attended a CE Program no later than 30 days following completion of a pre-approved CE Program:
(1) If the program applicant is recording CEU credit with the Board on behalf of licensees, the payment of the recording fee as set forth in Rule 21 NCAC 22A .0501 and an original Report of Attendance for each licensee shall accompany the submission of the roster; or
(2) If licensees are responsible for recording CEU credit with the Board, including paying the recording fee, the program applicant shall provide the original signed Report of Attendance form to each licensee at the end of the program, and shall submit only the roster.
(c) The Board shall accept the Board form entitled "Continuing Education Report of Program Attendance" for attendance verification when recording CEU credit. The Board shall reject certificates of attendance issued by any entity other than the Board as proof of attendance or as verification of CEU credit earned.
(d) A licensee shall record CE Program CEU credit with the Board by submitting all of the following:
(1) an electronic CEU Verification Report;
(2) an original Report of Attendance; and
(3) a recording fee for each CE Program as set forth in Rule 21 NCAC 22A .0501.
(e) A licensee shall record self-study CEU credit with the Board as set forth in Rule .0208 of this Section.
(f) The Board shall accept an electronic image of the Report of Attendance as the original Report of Attendance when submitted electronically in conjunction with a CEU Verification Report or a roster.
(g) A licensee shall record sufficient Board-approved CEU credit to satisfy the continuing education requirement for license renewal by the CEU reporting deadline, which is the 10th day of January immediately following the CEU Accrual Period.
(h) A licensee's failure to record sufficient CEU credit with the Board by the CEU reporting deadline shall be grounds for disciplinary action.
