The board shall establish, by regulation, mandatory continuing education requirements for acupuncture practitioners licensed in this state, including the following:
Each person licensed under this chapter, whether or not residing within the state, shall complete thirty (30) hours of continuing education within each biennial renewal period, except during the initial biennial renewal period; and
Each person not obtaining the required number of hours of continuing education may have his or her license renewed for just cause, as determined by the board, so long as the board requires that the deficient hours of continuing education, and all unpaid fees, are made up during the following renewal period in addition to the current continuing education requirements for the renewal period. If any acupuncture practitioner fails to make up the deficient hours and complete the later renewal period, or fails to make up any unpaid fees, then his or her license shall not be renewed until all fees are paid and all of the required hours are completed and documented to the board.
The board shall establish by regulation education standards and record keeping requirements for continuing education providers. A provider of continuing education courses shall apply to the board for approval to offer continuing education courses for credit toward this requirement on a form developed by the board, shall pay a fee covering the cost of approval and for monitoring of the provider by the board. Institutions, associations and individuals providing continuing education shall maintain records of attendance, including sign-in sheets, for a period of three (3) years.
