Additional information
  • North Dakota Physical Therapy Assistant Standard Renewal Requirements: Physical therapist assistants in North Dakota must complete 25 continuing competence units (1 unit = 1 hour) every two years, and must attest to completion at the January license renewal deadline following their two-year cycle. Source The administrative rules define acceptable activity content and unit standards (e.g., educational relevance, presenter qualifications) and permit teaching and certain certification programs to count toward the 25-unit requirement. Continuing Education Source

---

  • First-time renewal: Licensees applying for licensure in North Dakota for the first time from other states or countries who do not have twenty-five units within the last two years will be required to complete thirteen units within one year of initial licensure in North Dakota, after which they are placed on the standard two-year cycle. Source

---

  • Certification alternative/equivalency: The Board permits credit for Board-approved clinical certification programs and the Board FAQ indicates the Board allows up to 15 CC units for taking and passing an approved Clinical Certification Program ( licensees must rely on Board approval/documentation ).

---

  • Documentation & audit: Licensees must attest at renewal and the Board selects a sample (10%) of licensees annually for evidence of continuing competence, and may require additional documentation from a licensee to verify compliance; a licensee claiming extenuating circumstances may petition the Board. Source

---

  • Exemptions & waivers: A person claiming extenuating circumstances may petition the Board for consideration; new licensees from other states/countries lacking 25 units must complete 13 units within one year. Source

---

  • Renewal logistics: Attestation occurs at the January license renewal deadline immediately following the two-year cycle; the Board may require additional evidence if audited. Information on grace periods, late fees, inactive/reactivation CE specifics, and background checks No information found on this requirement from the state board site. Source

---

  • Out-of-state / multi-license credit: The rules allow licensees applying for licensure in ND from other states to be required to complete 13 units within one year if they lack 25 units in the prior two years, but the rules are otherwise silent on explicit reciprocity limits for CE credits earned for other states.

I really loved this information. I was hospitalized last year for almost a month and I noticed multiple medical errors (not being hooked up to my IV multiple times, given wrong medication which caused my sodium to be very low, etc.) which lengthened my stay. I can now define those exact errors and better understand what happened to me. I hate that these medical errors are so common and I appreciate how well laid out your breakdown and categorization of them was.
