Online Hours NOT accepted for 12 required hours by the Chiropractic Board.
We do offer a 10 hour online course that offers you required Xray hours to renew permits and certificates as licentiates of the healing arts are required to earn 10 approved continuing education credits in the two years immediately preceding the expiration of the certificate or permit. The requirement for continuing education credits are specified in Section 30403 of Title 17, California Code of Regulations. This is not a Chiropractic Boar requirement, so, although the hours earned in this course can not be applied to renewing your Chiropractic license, it is an approved course for the xray permit and certificate requirement.
