Help Center / I recently completed my post professional OT Doctorate. Do the classes I took towards my degree count towards licensure renewal for continuing education credit, and how do I calculate the hours?


Yes, as long as you completed an approved accredited program, (by the American Occupational Therapy Association (AOTA) www.aota.org) you may receive continuing education credit. Board Rule 64B11-6.001(4)(b), Florida Administrative Code, states, courses sponsored by a college or university when providing a curriculum for occupational therapists or occupational therapy assistants shall be awarded 10 hours of continuing education credit per semester hour and shall be verified by official transcripts.
