What are my Continuing Education requirements each year?
This is dependent upon where you are from. See below for the specific requirements for specific countries:
Australia
The Chiropractic Board and AHPRA continuing education scheme relies on registrants to determine their own continuing education requirements and then arrange suitable learning to fit these learning needs. Therefore the continuing education hours available through the two programs within Elevate Paediatrics may be regarded as a guide only. However, these are the continuing education hours that have previously been allocated in Australia, and are current in New Zealand, South Africa, Canada and California.
New Zealand
All practitioners must complete a minimum of 25 hours of continuing education activities annually. At least 50% (12.5 hours) of the hours required must be ‘formal’ learning activities. The balance may be either ‘formal’ or ‘informal’ learning activities.
U.K.
The GCC continuing education scheme relies on registrants to determine their own continuing education requirements and then arrange suitable learning to fit these learning needs.
