Minn. R. agency 168, ch. 7200, CONTINUING EDUCATION, pt. 7200.3860 - CONTINUING EDUCATION AUDIT
The board shall randomly audit a percentage of renewing licensees each month for compliance with continuing education requirements.
A. During the first ten
days of the month following the renewal date, the board shall send a notice to
the licensee that the licensee has been selected for an audit of continuing
education hours. The notice shall include the reporting period selected for
audit.
B. Selected licensees shall
submit copies of the original documentation of continuing education hours
completed during the reporting period. Upon specific request, the licensee
shall submit original documentation. Failure to submit required documentation
shall result in the renewal application being considered incomplete and void
and constitute grounds for termination for nonrenewal of the license and
disciplinary action.
C. The
continuing education list must include the names of the sponsors, the dates and
titles of the activity, the number of hours credited, and supportive
documentation. A license renewal certificate shall not be issued unless the
licensee has demonstrated that the requirements in parts
7200.3820 to
7200.3830 have been met.
D. If the licensee fails to meet the
continuing education requirements by the renewal date, the license renewal is
deemed late and the licensee will not be permitted to renew electronically. The
renewal application must then be submitted in writing along with all
documentation, renewal fee, and renewal late fee. The licensee may request a
time-limited variance to fulfill the continuing education requirements after
the renewal date. The variance request must meet the requirements of part
7200.6000, subpart 1, and must
include a written plan listing the activities including the dates and the
number of hours for each activity offered to meet the requirement. Continuing
education activities completed after the renewal date pursuant to the written
plan shall count toward meeting only the requirements of the previous renewal
period. A variance granted under this part expires six months after the renewal
date.
E. A provider who has
submitted a request for a time-limited variance for continuing education
requirements according to item D, or whose continuing education is under review
by the board, may continue to practice until the board has taken action on the
variance request, or the review is complete.
