Many State Board-approved providers report your course completions to your CE Broker account on your behalf. The amount of time this takes varies by provider, but it can take up to 30 days. If you are under a time constraint or if the educational provider does not report to your licensure via CE Broker at all, you always have the option to report your hours yourself.
If you're a Concierge member, there's no need to self-report your hours. Simply send your certificates to your account manager, and we'll take care of the rest!
Note: It is advised to gather your CE certificate documentation for easy access before following the manual reporting process. You may also be required to attach a digital copy of your certificate as determined by the rules/regulations of your regulating entity.
How to self-report your CE/CME:
1. Log in to your CE Broker account.
2. Click ⊕ Report CE at the top of the page.
3. For accounts with multiple licenses, verify that the license you intend to report for is selected. Then make sure the Report CE/CME tab is selected.
Note: Credits that are applicable to multiple licenses must be reported to each license individually.
4. Determine which type of CE you want to report from the list of reporting options.
- Which reporting option you choose can depend on how your completed credit was approved, and what types of approved credit are accepted by your licensing entity to apply to your requirements.
- Click Learn More ˅ and How to Report ˅ to review more information about each category if you are unsure which option is most applicable.
5. Click Begin next to the appropriate reporting option.
Unless otherwise indicated, credits must be reported one certificate at a time.
- If your Board allows multiple courses to be reported at once, this will be specifically stated next to the appropriate reporting option as shown in the example below.
(Renewal packages presented in the CE Broker Course Search are considered a single course and issue a single certificate upon completion.)
6. Answer the questions as prompted. The questions will vary depending on your regulating board and can include: the date completed, course type, number of hours, name of educational provider, name of course, etc.
All of this information should be listed on your certificate of completion. As you answer the questions, be sure to click Continue to advance the submission form.
7. Once you reach the Attachments page, you’re almost done! Attach your certificate of completion, or select ‘Maintain Your Own Documentation’ if available, then click Continue.
8. Now you’re ready to submit your CE. On the final page, you will attest that the information you entered is true. Simply click Submit CE to complete the reporting process.
Your self-reported credit is recorded to your CE Broker course history immediately, which gives your Board instant access to it.
