Approved Content

Not Accepted Topic Areas:

1. Personal Development

The catalog on this website lists courses and webinars by Topic Areas. Due to Board restrictions on content, you should avoid earning your PDH in the Topic Areas listed above.

Technical, professional, ethical, and managerial content is accepted, although there are no specific restrictions on other types of content. In general, the course must have a “clear purpose and objective which will maintain, improve, or expand the skills and knowledge relevant to the licensee’s field of practice.”

Approved Activities

Distance learning courses are specifically listed as approved activities. There is no limit on the number of hours that can be earned through distance learning.

PDH Carryover

Due to the recent change from biennial to annual renewals, the Board’s rule on carryover may be subject to change. It is suggested that you contact the board directly for clarification. Once a new rule has been posted, we will update this information.

PDHengineer helps you meet this requirement by providing you with the ability to instantly access and print a certificate upon successful completion of a course or webinar.
