CAP ON CEU's FROM APPLICATIONS TRAINING
Sarah Johnson and Kathy Thomas published from the Society of Medicine’s Voice Box a reminder about an important update on CE credits. Effective January 1, 2011 the ARRT is going to cap the number of continuing education credits that a person can receive for applications training. The cap will be eight credit hours per biennium. (It does not apply to applications training at corporate offices or online training.) A significant point is the NMTCB and individual licensing states have not set a similar cap. So if 24 hours is needed to recertify and it contains more than 8 CEU’s of applications training, the ARRT will not accept all 24 hours even though the NMTCB or the state will. If an individual is using the ARRT route to satisfy a state requirement, they may come up short.
