TEXAS JOINS MW CE ZONE

March 24, 2003

TDI announced the state has entered into an agreement with the Midwest Zone States regarding continuing education (CE) reciprocity. With some exceptions, a course approved by a participating state will be accepted by other participating states merely by filing a standard filing form, one or two attachments, and payment of applicable fees. The participating states have agreed that they will not re-review another state’s CE course or instructor approval. A standard course filing form will be used for reciprocity filings. In Texas, filings for self-study credit are limited to 15 credit hours, and classroom courses to 30 hours credit. The program will be effective in Texas on April 1, 2003. At that time, Texas will begin accepting filings under the agreement, and Texas providers may file in other participating states under the agreement. The participating states are: Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, District of Columbia, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, New Hampshire, Nevada, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vermont, Wisconsin and Wyoming.
