When do chiropractors need to submit their CE credit certificates to the board?

Chiropractors are required to submit their continuing education (CE) credit certificates only when requested by the board. This is part of the board's random auditing process, which ensures that licensees are maintaining their eligibility by fulfilling the necessary continuing education requirements. This system of random audits allows the board to verify compliance without necessitating that all chiropractors submit their CE credits at the time of license renewal or immediately after completing courses.

In practice, this means that throughout the course of their licensure, chiropractors must keep accurate records of their CE credits, as they may be called upon to provide proof of education if selected for an audit. This approach helps maintain standards in the chiropractic profession while also reducing the administrative burden on both the chiropractors and the board during the license renewal process.
