Important Renewal Change for Occupational Therapists

Wisconsin Act 28, of the State Budget Bill has changed the renewal date.

This change occurred due to the creation of a new appropriation for all Medical Examining Board related professions.

In order for the Department to implement the “new” date, the renewal fee and continuing education points have been pro-rated based on the beginning date of the “new” two year cycle.

Current Renewal date: 10-31-09

CE required as of 10-31-09: 24 points

New Renewal Date: 5-31-11 (odd year)

Pro-Rated CE hours required for New Date: 19 points

 

Please Note:  For the biennium that begins November 1, 2009 and ends May 31, 2011, only 19 continuing education points are required. Thereafter, the biennia will run from 6/1/odd to 5/31/odd and 24 points will be required.
