FAQ

CE questions

When do I need to complete my CE?
Earn your 6 hours between January and September of the even year your license renews. Licenses renew by September 30 of every even-numbered year.
Does online CE count?
Yes. GIADA's online on-demand series is approved by the state licensing board and satisfies the 6-hour requirement once you complete all of its courses.
What do I do with my certificate?
Upload it to CE Broker, which the Board now uses to track CE. Keep a copy for your renewal along with your surety bond and insurance documents.
What if I miss the renewal deadline?
Renew during the state's late renewal period if one is still open. After that the license must be reinstated, which means starting a whole new application. Call GIADA right away if you're running late.
