PENNSYLVANIA RELEASES CONTINUING EDUCATION REQUIREMENTS
The State of Pennsylvania has released its Continuing Education Requirements and has decided to implement the CE requirements in the 2009-2011 renewal cycle and 24 Credits/PDHs must be completed by September 30, 2011. Please click this link for a detailed explanation of the requirements. Please note that the term “Credit” (not to be confused with CEUs) and PDHs are used interchangeably throughout this document. Generally speaking, one PDH is equal to 50 minutes of instruction or presentation relevant to professional practice or any equivalent. An important point to note, one CEU (not Credit) is equal to ten PDHs.
