On September 1, 2021 inspectors are required to complete a new 8 Hour Inspector Legal & Ethics and Standards of Practice Review course as part of the 32 hours of inspector continuing education (CE) required to renew or activate a license.
This course will replace the two inspector non-elective CE courses, 4-hour Inspector Legal & Ethics, and 4-hour Standards of Practice Review course that will expire on August 31, 2021.
What does this mean for me?
If you have already enrolled in the two 4-hour non-elective courses, you must complete them prior to August 31, 2021, to receive credit for them.
What if I already completed the two 4-hour non-elective courses, but my license is not due for renewal until after September 1?
If you completed the courses within your license term (the two-year period before your license expiration date), then those courses will count towards your renewal, even if you do not renew until after September 1.
What if I don’t enroll in any CE courses until after September 1?
If you do not enroll in CE until after September 1, your only choice for non-elective CE will be the new 8-hour Inspector Legal & Ethics and Standards of Practice Review course.
Review your education course listing on our website by performing a license holder search for your license to confirm if you have already completed your non-elective CE.
