CE hours for renewal—which statement is true?

• A. 7 hours total, including at least 1 hour of ethics.
• B. 12 hours all ethics.
• C. 24 hours no ethics.
• D. 7 hours total, including at least 1 hour of ethics.

Answer: (D)

The key idea is that renewal requires a specific amount of education with a required ethics component. The rule states you must complete seven continuing education hours in total, and within that total, at least one hour must cover ethics. This ensures licensees stay competent and aware of ethical standards while keeping the overall workload reasonable.

So the statement that seven hours in total, with at least one hour devoted to ethics, matches exactly what’s required. The other options don’t fit because they either propose too many hours (for example, twelve hours all ethics or twenty-four hours with no ethics) or misstate the need for an ethics component within the total.
