The renewal year is July 1 to June 30, how do we report the hours if they are to be obtained during the calendar year?
To renew your license you must show that you obtained the contact hours during the previous CALENDAR year. A calendar year is January to December. For example, to renew for 2008-2009 you must have obtained 12 contact hours in HSW during the calendar year 2007. To Renew for 2009-2010 you must obtain CE during the calendar year 2008. To Renew for 2010-2011 you must obtain CE during the calendar year 2009. To Renew for 2011-2012 you must obtain CE during the calendar year 2010. For a newly licensed individual, you are exempt from CE for the year in which you become licensed. For example, if your license was issued in January 2008 you do not have to begin obtaining CE until January 2009, to renew for 2010-2011.

For example, if your license was issued in January 2010 you do not have to begin obtaining CE until January 2011. On your 2010-2011 renewal form you can indicate that you are ‘exempt’ from CE. If you do not have the required CE to renew your license will be renewed provisionally and you will be placed on probation and given until December 31 to obtain the delinquent CE. If you do not have the required CE and renew late, after the CE calendar year has ended, you will not be allowed to renew until the delinquent CE is obtained. It is in your best interest to obtain the CE and renew in a timely manner.
