CPE Reporting

The CPE reporting year runs from July 1 to June 30. CPE must be earned by June 30 and reported by December 31 each year. Nonresidents who are licensed in their principal state of business and meet that state's CPE requirements and are seeking exemption from Minnesota CPE requirements must claim that exemption every year by December 31.

You do not need to wait until December 31 to report your CPE (or claim exemption). Once you have completed all your CPE, report it through Online Renewal.

Online Renewal

You are only able to enter your CPE for the year once via Online Renewal. Have all your information gathered prior to beginning. Should you subsequently need to modify your hours, contact the Board office for assistance.

 

Note: If you did not complete your required CPE by June 30 of the reporting year, you'll need to complete the necessary carryback CPE and send the associated certificates of completion along with all accrued noncompliance fees to the Board office as soon as possible. There is no required Board form; simply send the items requested above. Fees continue to accrue until you submit the certificates of completion and correct fees to the Board office. See the "CPE Non-Compliance" section as well as the CPE section of the FAQs.

Do NOT include CPE certificates earned during the current period with your carryback hours. It is your responsibility to record hours earned during the current period either online prior to renewal or as part of your renewal. Submitting unrecorded, noncarryback hours along with carryback hours may result in your entire submission being returned to you.
