  • Updated

The Georgia Board of Physical Therapy allows licensees to report CE Exemptions to satisfy or eliminate the need to complete continuing education credits for their renewal. You can upload an exemption to fulfill all your CE requirements.

The available exemptions for Georgia Physical Therapists and Physical Therapist Assistants are:

  • Graduate, Passed National Physical Therapy Exam (NPTE or NPTAE)
  • Graduation from entry level PT program including dry needling
  • Graduation from post-graduate program including dry needling

 

You can review the options and report your CE Exemption by following these instructions:

 

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 select will correspond with your current license cycle date.

    For example, if you need to renew your license on or before 07/31/2024 in order to renew, you'll report your exemption for the cycle 08/01/2022 - 07/31/2024.

     
  • The date range you select should always start before your renewal deadline/expiration.



5. Click Learn More ˅ under the exemption options to find out more about each category and if you qualify.

 

 

 

 

6. If applicable, click Report next to the appropriate option to submit your exemption.


 


7. Answer the questions as prompted and click Continue to advance the submission form.
