What is a passing score on the CE test?
You must score 80% on the CE test. If you don't pass the first time, you can re-take the test. You can also print out a copy of the test prior to reading the material. The test is not meant to be punitive. The purpose of the test is to reinforce the learning.
Why is there a score on my course evaluation?
Due to the design of the software, the system appears to score your evaluation. With regard to the evaluation - there are no right or wrong answers (except that you must confirm that you are the person who has read the material and completed the exam). Your responses to the evaluation are not related to the score on your CE test. We want candid answers to the evaluation even though it may look like some of those answers are "wrong."

Select the course you want from the drop-down menu and proceed to register.

Why isn't the course I want in my drop-down course menu on the registration page?
This is because you probably registered for the course previously, and the course is already in your CE account. Once you register for a course, the system automatically removes it from your personal registration menu so that you don't register for the same course twice.
What if I want to take the same course twice?
In order for our CE records to be accurate, we cannot delete a previously taken course from your account. If you want to take the course again, you will need to create another account using another e-mail address.
However, keep in mind that your licensing board may not accept the same course twice.
