10 hours of continuing education training courses are required yearly, as well as updated CPR, First Aid, Article 9 (Managing Inappropriate Behaviors) and Prevention and Support if applicable for license renewal. Fingerprints, physician statements and home inspections are required every 3 years. Along with training and certifications needed, a reapplication packet is required. Your Licensing Support Specialist will facilitate the process by guiding you through the reapplication procedures and required paperwork. A renewal letter is sent out approximately 3 months prior to expiration to explain procedures, plan for needs and verify home compliance with Licensing Regulations.
