Continuing Competence
Continuing education has become the face of continued competence—are they really the same?

48 states regulate the profession---all provide for completion of CE to satisfy continuing competency requirements

• Post-voluntary credentialing• Post-licensure
Two different worlds!

Continuing Competence
What Board Members really need to know:
• CC is difficult to document• Most often method used is CE• CE Programs offered by many• Administrative pitfalls to avoid
Presented at the 2006 CLEAR Annual ConferenceSeptember 14-16 Alexandria, Virginia
