Healing arts: continuing education.
Summary
Existing law provides for the licensure and regulation of various healing arts licensees by various boards, as defined, within the Department of Consumer Affairs and imposes various continuing education requirements for license renewal. This bill would allow specified healing arts licensees to apply one unit, as defined, of continuing education credit, once per renewal cycle, towards any required continuing education units for attending certain courses that result in the licensee becoming a certified instructor of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) or the proper use of an automated external defibrillator (AED) , and would allow specified healing arts licensees to apply up to 2 units of continuing education credit, once per renewal cycle, towards any required continuing education units for conducting CPR or AED training sessions for employees of school districts and community college districts in the state. The bill would specify that these provisions would only apply if a licensing board's laws or regulations establishing continuing education requirements include the courses or activities mentioned above.
