§1315.140. Renewal

a)         Every license issued under the Act shall expire on December 31 of each odd numbered year.  The holder of the license may renew such license during the month preceding the expiration date by paying the required fee.  Beginning with the December 31, 2005 renewal and every renewal thereafter, a renewal applicant will be required to complete 24 contact hours of continuing education as set forth in Section 1315.145 of this Part.

 

b)         It is the responsibility of each licensee to notify the Division of any change of address.  Failure to receive a renewal form from the Division shall not constitute an excuse for failure to pay the renewal fee or to renew one's license.

 

c)         Practicing on an expired license shall be considered unlicensed practice.
