CONTINUING EDUCATION RESOURCES AND GUIDANCE

NYSCPG wants to bring your attention to updates to NYSED's Office of Professions webpage for Continuing Education for Professional Geologists. In particular, see FAQ #5, which is provided here for your convenience:

When will I be required to report completion of continuing education?

Beginning January 1, 2023, professional geologists will be required to complete 36 contact hours of continuing education during each threeyear registration period. If you are renewing the registration of your license on or after January 1, 2023, the number of contact hours you will be required to complete and report will vary, depending on when your current registration expires. You will be required to complete continuing education at a rate of 1 hour per month beginning January 1, 2022 to the date your registration is due to be renewed for a maximum of 36 hours. Please refer to the following chart for specific information on the number of continuing education hours required.
