[OBCE_Publication] Updated CE Requirements

[OBCE Oregon * BCE]

This message is being sent to all licensees and certificate holders.

The OBCE board voted on May 23, 2022, to include Basic Life Support (BLS)/Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR)/Automated External Defibrillator (AED) certification as a part of each licensee/certificate holder's annual renewal requirement, effective immediately. This means that licensees must hold an active certificate of completion when renewing each year. If licensees/certificate holders do not currently hold this certification, they must obtain one as soon as possible. A breakdown of hours for each license type is available below and changes are highlighted. Like other annual CE, unless audited, licensees/certificate holders will not currently be required to submit proof of certification.
