### § 33-30-03-01. Continuing education.

1. To renew a license a person must present proof of having attained at least 1.5 continuing
education units of continuing education in the field of environmental health. Continuing
education for licensure renewal must be completed in the biennium preceding the biennium
for which licensure is sought. Under extraordinary circumstances the state health officer may
consider a request for continuing education units obtained in the current biennium.
2. A curriculum review committee, composed of the advisory board members or their agent, shall
meet at timely intervals to review applications for curriculum accreditation. Continuing
education units must be assigned as one continuing education unit per ten hours of
instruction. Curricula must have public health or environmental health orientation. Programs
which already carry accreditation by a recognized educational agency or professional
organization may be accepted by the committee. The committee, upon advice from the
licensure board, may alter or reject accreditation assigned by another agency or organization
if such action is necessitated by facts pointing to an erroneous accreditation having been
assigned.
