Ga. Comp. R. & Regs. R. 510-8-.03 - Reporting/Documentation
(1) Each licensee
shall maintain for four years his/her own records of completed continuing
education activities. The Board will not maintain continuing education files
for licensees.
(2) Each licensee
shall attest, on his/her biennial license renewal application, that he/she has
satisfied the continuing education requirements. Documentation of these
activities should be retained by the licensee and not sent to the Board unless
so requested. False attestation of satisfaction of the continuing education
requirements on a renewal application may subject to licensee to disciplinary
action, including revocation.
(3)
The Board will audit a fixed percentage of the renewal applications. Licensees
whose applications are audited will be required to document the completion of
his/her continuing education activities on the Continuing Education Report
Form. Licensees will also be required to provide copies of the actual
certificates earned for Area IV Approved Sponsored Continuing Education
activities and also the documentation of any CE activities claimed from Areas
I, II, III, and V as is required and specified in those areas.
(a) If an audited licensee fails to provide
the Board with acceptable documentation of the credits attested to on his/her
renewal application, the license will not be renewed. The licensee may obtain
the required continuing education credits within thirty one (31) days, however,
the license will not be renewed until the requirements have been met and
approved by the Board. Failure to satisfy the continuing education requirement
shall result in revocation of the license by operation of law.
(b) If, following the audit, the Board
disqualifies any of the documented continuing education credits such that the
licensee does not meet the continuing education requirements set out above, the
license will not be renewed until the requirements have been met and approved
by the Board. The licensee must obtain the required continuing education
credits before the end of the late renewal period (January 31st of every odd
numbered year following the even numbered year renewal/expiration date) or the
license shall be revoked by operation of law.
(c) Under conditions a or b, practicing
without a renewed license subjects the licensee to penalties as set forth by
the Board, and the licensee may be subject to disciplinary action, including
revocation of license. A psychologist cannot practice psychology in the State
of Georgia without an active, renewed license.
