The Office of Professional Regulation, commonly known as “OPR,” is a division of the Office of the Secretary of State. OPR’s mission is to protect the public from incompetent or unethical practitioners through a system of licensure. The Office achieves this by supporting boards and advisor groups that oversee licensure of 50 professions (such as architects and tattooists) and approximately 80,000 licensees.

A total of 20 hours of continuing education per two year renewal period shall be earned by licensed occupational therapists and occupational therapy assistants. If a license has been held for one year or less, no continuing competence is required. If held mare than one year but less than two years, ten hours is required.

To be accepted by the Director, activities must be related to a licensee’s current or anticipated roles and responsibilities in occupational therapy and must directly or indirectly serve to protect the public by enhancing the licensee’s continuing education. Subject matter for qualified activities include research; theoretical or practical content related to the practice of occupational therapy; or the development, administration, supervision, and teaching of clinical practice or service delivery programs by occupational therapists or occupational therapy assistants.

Licensees shall maintain the required proof of completion for each continuing competence activity as specified in these rules. The required documentation shall be maintained for a minimum of two years following the last day of the renewal period for which the continuing competency activities were earned. Licensees should not send their continuing competency activity documentation to the Office unless audited or otherwise requested to do so.
