Certain regulatory entities may allow exemptions from continuing education (CE) credits for license renewal, but these must be reported in CE Broker if compliance tracking is required. To report an exemption, log in to CE Broker, select the correct license and period, review exemption options, submit required documentation, and track the status. Exemption statuses include Approved, Pending, Disapproved, and Revoked. In the event an exemption was reported in error, you have the option to delete the exemption in the system.
Reporting a New Exemption
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 the exemption for is selected. Click on the Additional Options tab.
4.Select the licensing period for which you are reporting the exemption.
The dates you choose should align with your current license cycle.
Example: If your license must be renewed on or before 07/31/2024, report your exemption for the cycle 08/01/2022 – 07/31/2024.
The start date you select should always be before your renewal deadline/expiration.
