Additional Post-Licensing Information
Effective February 1, 2008 all new licensees are required to complete 30 hours of post-licensing education pursuant to 12AAC 64.064. This education is in addition to the 20 hours of continuing education that you will be required to complete prior to license renewal.
All post-licensing education must be completed within one-year of initial licensure. Licensees are required to submit form number 08-4326 “ Affidavit of Post-Licensing Education” to the Commission along with proof of completion of post-licensing education within 30 days after the end of the one year period [AS 08.88.095(c)].
The deadlines for completion of post-licensing education and submitting the Affidavit of Post-Licensing Education will be listed on the individual’s license. If a licensee fails to complete the post licensing education (PLE) required within the one year period and provide the proof of certification, the license automatically lapses 30 days after the end of the one year period and the licensee would be required to reinstate their license (to include a reinstatement fee)
The “Affidavit of Post-Licensing Education” form can be found on the Applications and Forms page.
