Has Jane Donut completed her mandatory CE requirement?

In Pennsylvania, licensed psychologists are required to complete a specific number of continuing education (CE) hours to maintain their licensure, typically set at 30 contact hours every two years. The indication that Jane Donut received credit for only 24 contact hours suggests that she has not fulfilled the total CE requirement, which means she has not met the necessary hours to maintain her license.

It is important to note that simply attending workshops, publishing articles, or teaching may contribute to fulfilling CE requirements, but if they do not add up to the mandated hours, they do not qualify as meeting the full obligation. Therefore, the accurate assessment is that Jane has indeed not met her CE requirement due to having only 24 hours accrued, falling short of the necessary 30 hours. This highlights the importance of tracking and verifying the total contact hours earned through various professional development activities to ensure compliance with licensing requirements.
