For Out-of-State Providers
Many state licensing boards accept continuing education hours from providers that are compliant with another state's regulations, particularly when the training is relevant and the provider is a reputable organization. Our programs, while designed to meet Texas requirements, often satisfy CEU requirements in other states that recognize Texas-based training.
We encourage you to always verify the specific CEU requirements with your state licensing board to ensure the training will be accepted for your license renewal. Your board is the final authority on what qualifies for continuing education credit.
