[SRRA]: LSRP Continuing Education Credits

ATTENTION: LSRP LICENSE HOLDERS

CONTINUING EDUCATION CREDIT APPLICATIONS

The Board has approved applications for LSRPs to use to apply for approval of continuing education credits (CECs) for authoring a peer reviewed paper, preparing and giving a presentation, and instructing an approved continuing education program. These applications may be found on the Board website at www.nj.gov/lsrpboard/board/education/course_info.html. The Board will accept applications for approval of CECs for these activities within 90 days after completion of the activity (see individual applications for specifics).

Special extended application period:

If submitted within 90 days of September 10, 2014, the Board will accept applications from LSRPs for approval of CECs for continuing education activities conducted by that LSRP while holding a Temporary LSRP license at any time from January 1, 2011 to the present date, including the aforementioned authoring of a peer reviewed paper, preparing and giving a presentation, and instructing an approved continuing education program.

In addition, if submitted within 90 days of September 10, 2014, the Board will also accept applications from LSRPs for approval of CECs for continuing education programs that have not already been approved by the Board but which the LSRP attended while holding a Temporary LSRP license within the 18 months prior to receiving their first permanent license.

To be eligible for CECs for any such program, the LSRP must submit the application for course approval found on the Board website at: https://www.nj.gov/lsrpboard/board/education/course_info.html.

Also, LSRPs may count CECs for Board-approved courses earned during the 18 months prior to receiving their first permanent license toward the total number of CECs (36) needed to be earned during their first license term, as long as the LSRP held a temporary license at the time the CECs were earned. In this event, there is no application required to be submitted by the LSRP. This one-time extension does not apply to LSRPs that have received their permanent license but did not hold a temporary license at the time the CECs were earned.
