How many days prior to the CEU program commencement must an application be filed with the board?

The requirement to file an application with the board at least 30 days prior to the commencement of a Continuing Education Unit (CEU) program is established to ensure that there is adequate time for review and approval of the program. This timeframe allows the board to assess the content, relevance, and compliance of the proposed CEU offering with the necessary regulations and standards. It also provides the opportunity for any necessary adjustments or clarifications to be made before the program begins, ensuring that participants receive valid and recognized educational opportunities.

The emphasis on a 30-day advance notice helps maintain the quality and integrity of the educational programs available to health facility administrators, ultimately supporting professional development in the field.
