All approved courses are listed on the Board Website in three tables – all approved courses, approved courses that are upcoming, and all approved courses in a searchable table – [Education]

Applications for approval of Continuing Education Credit for Continuing Education Programs may be submitted by a provider of a program or by an attendee of the program if the provider has not or does not plan to submit an application – Information for Course Providers and LSRPs

According to the Board Rules at NJAC 7:26I-4.3(d), no more than 18 continuing education credits per three-year license term may be earned from Board approved alternative verifiable learning format programs.

"Alternative verifiable learning format" means any continuing education that is presented in a format that does not provide the ability to interact with the instructor or other participants during the presentation.

If you attend a program simultaneously to it being presented, whether you attend in-person or virtually, and you are able to interact with the instructors and other participants to ask questions or make comments via voice or chat, that is considered a live program, not alternative verifiable learning format. However, if you attend a program that you access on-demand, not simultaneously with its presentation, that is considered an alternative verifiable learning format program.

For either type of continuing education program, to verify your attendance you must provide to the Board a certificate with the name of the course, the date attended, the Board Course Number, and the number and type of continuing education credits, which is signed by a representative of the provider.
