• The NCEA Commission on Accreditaion is our continuing education accreditor.

• At this time - there is NO NATIONAL CE COURSE APPROVAL recognized for state board license renewal. 

• Each state board decides on their requirements through their state government.

• The laws and rules are different for each state and - not all states require CE’s for the renewal of licenses. 

• The process for an educational provider to submit material to the state board for CE curriculum approval is a very lengthy process and subject to administrative timelines and efficiency. 

• The state CE approval process for an educational provider is lengthy - even to get approval from their own state can take weeks or months. Considering the time required to apply and receive approval for each state in the U.S. - it equates to waiting extreme lengths of time and overlapping deadlines which is not feasible.

• Each state has different requirements regarding the health and safety training  in the curriculum for CE requirements. Some states require this subject to be taught within the advanced class topic. Some states will accept this portion of the training to be taken online separately. 

• With these factors in perspective – one can understand why not all classes and conferences throughout the US offer CE’s for every single state. 

• DermaEducationTV may provide you (by email request) a certificate of completion for the class you have attended providing the course name and time logged. 

• You may contact your state board directly, advise them of the class and the documentation, and inquire if they will approve some or all of the hours to count as CE's for your license renewal. 

• PLEASE NOTE:  DermaEducationTV nor any of the instructors can assist you with your CE questions or processes – this is your responsibility. 

• We also cannot guarantee that your state board will approve the hours or course content from our classes. As mentioned above, each state has their own guidelines and acceptable topics for CE education. We can issue you a certificate for your class, however we cannot assume nor accept responsibility for your license renewal.
