General Information  \nThe continuing education (CE) credits and continuing experience required to renew permits and certificates in radiologic technology are specified in title 17, California Code of Regulation (17 CCR), section 30403. The Radiologic Health Branch does not have a program to provide continuing education credits and does not credential providers of continuing education.  \nAn “approved continuing education credit” means 50-60 minutes of instruction received in subjects related to the application of X-ray to the human body and accepted for purposes of credentialing, assigning professional status or certification by the following organizations:  \n• American Registry of Radiologic Technologists (ARRT)  \n• Medical Board of California  \n• Osteopathic Medical Board of California  \n• California Board of Chiropractic Examiners  \n• Board of Podiatric Medicine  \n• Dental Board of California  \nPlease note: “Subjects related to the application of X-ray to the human body” may include X-ray administration, X-ray management, X-ray pathology, X-ray diagnosis and X-ray quality control. However, subjects in MRI, Ultrasound, CPR, or other topics not related to the application of X-rays to the human body cannot be accepted. It is the responsibility of the certificate or permit holder to ascertain the acceptability of courses.  \nThe renewal form mailed to you will include space for documenting the approved CE credits you have earned. You may use the reverse side of the renewal form, if needed. Each individual is required to maintain documents that evidence the completion of approved continuing education credits for four (4) years following the dates the credits were earned. These documents must be made available to the Department upon request. [17 CCR 30403 .8]  \n(Back to Top)  \n2. Licentiates of the Healing Arts – CE Requirements  \nLicentiates of the healing arts are those physicians and surgeons, osteopathic physicians and surgeons, podiatrists and chiropractors who possess a Radiology supervisor and operator certificate, or a Fluoroscopy, Radiography or Dermatology supervisor and operator permit.  \nAll licentiates need to earn 10 approved CE credits in the two years immediately preceding the expiration date of their certificate/permit.  \nIf an individual holds a fluoroscopy supervisor and operator permit, four (4) of the 10 credits must bein radiation safety for the clinical uses of fluoroscopy. [17 CCR 30403(b)]  \nAn Approved Continuing Education Credit means 50 to 60 minutes of instruction received in subjects related to the application of X-ray to the human body and accepted for purposes of credentialing, assigning professional status or certification by:  \n• ARRT  \n• Medical Board of California  \n• Osteopathic Medical Board of California  \n• California Board of Chiropractic Examiners  \n• Board of Podiatric Medicine  \n• Dental Board of California  \nEXAMPLE: The Medical Board of California requires that physicians complete 50 hours of approved continuing education during each two-year period, and refers to these hours as Continuing Medical Education (CME) credits. One CE credit is equivalent to one CME credit as defined by the Medical Board of California when X-ray application to the human body is the subject matter of the education.  \nLicentiates who are in residency or fellowship programs and courses,","cbCaigAgSOS6ZIkm","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaigAgSOS6ZIkm","pdf",64491,"English","# General Information\n## Definition of approved CE credit\n## Documentation and recordkeeping\n# Licentiates of the Healing Arts – CE Requirements\n## Eligibility and required credits\n## Radiation safety credit split","[{\"question\":\"How long must CE documentation be retained for permit or certificate renewal?\",\"answer\":\"Each individual must retain documents evidencing completion of approved CE credits for four (4) years after the dates the credits were earned, and provide them upon departmental request.\"}]","Continuing Education Requirements for Certificate/Permit Renewal - Updated February 2017 | PDF",1790410279,18]
