What’s in it
This bill relates to continuing education requirements for licensed professions, including those licensed by the board of education or the supreme court. The bill prohibits boards from adopting rules for continuing education requirements that require a licensee to obtain continuing education credits that are not directly related to the practice of the licensed profession. The bill also requires the supreme court to adopt or amend court rules for the continuing education of attorneys that do not include any requirements that are not directly related to the practice of law.
