§ 25-1-4-3 — Sworn statements of compliance; retention of copies of certificates of completion; audits

(a) Notwithstanding any other law, a board that
is specifically authorized or mandated to require continuing education
as a condition to renew a registration, certification, or license must
require a practitioner to comply with the following renewal
requirements:
(1) The practitioner shall provide the board with a sworn
statement executed by the practitioner that the practitioner has
fulfilled the continuing education requirements required by the
board, after which the board will forward the sworn statement to
the agency (established by IC 25-1-5-3).
(2) The practitioner shall retain copies of certificates of
completion for continuing education courses for three (3) years
from the end of the licensing period for which the continuing
education applied. The practitioner shall provide the board or
agency (established by IC 25-1-5-3) with copies of the certificates
of completion upon the board's or agency's request for a
compliance audit.
(b) This subsection does not apply to an individual licensed under
IC 25-34.1. Following every license renewal period, the agency with
consultation from the board may randomly audit for compliance more
than one percent (1%) but less than ten percent (10%) of the
practitioners required to take continuing education courses.
(c) This subsection applies only to individuals licensed under IC 25-34.1. The agency in consultation with the board shall perform:
(1) annual; and
(2) random;
audits for compliance of more than one percent (1%) but less than ten
percent (10%) of the practitioners licensed under IC 25-34.1 required
to take continuing education courses.
