How are CE courses that chiropractors can teach categorized?

The correct categorization of Continuing Education (CE) courses that chiropractors can teach is that they are recognized for credit only once. This reflects the regulatory framework that governs continuing education to ensure that chiropractors are continually advancing their knowledge and skills without simply repeating the same courses for credit multiple times.

The intent behind the restriction of earning credit for a course only once is to promote diverse learning experiences and encourage practitioners to explore various subjects within the chiropractic field. This helps maintain a high standard of care and ensures that chiropractors remain up-to-date with the latest advancements and best practices in their profession.

Requiring all licensees to take CE courses and having them be unlimited in repetition for credit would contradict the purpose of ongoing education, which is to expand the breadth and depth of knowledge rather than allow for redundancy without benefit. Similarly, the designation that courses must be free of charge does not address their educational value or categorization; rather, it focuses on the financial aspect of course participation.
