Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 9, September 20, 2024

A. The term "verified credit" applies to continuing education units which are approved by the board and at which attendance by the licensee is verified in some fashion. Verification of attendance occurs where the sponsor of the program verifies participation or a transcript from the CEU registry is submitted.

B. The board will hold at least one program every year that fulfills the requirements promulgated herein. Attendance at this program will automatically be recognized by the board as verified credit toward the requirements set forth herein.

C. The board shall approve those programs submitted for board approval based upon the following factors:

1. the program must comply with The Interior Design Continuing Education Council (IDCEC) criteria;

2. the program must build upon the basic knowledge of interior design and must concentrate on or address the subjects of health, safety, and welfare of both licensees and their clients and customers;

3. the length of the actual instruction time;

4. the program must be open to all licensees or applicants for licensing.

D. The board will allow any program approved by the board prior to the program's date to contain in its brochures or literature the statement:

"This program in whole or in part counts toward fulfilling requirements promulgated by the state of Louisiana for interior design continuing education units."

E. The approval of a submitted program shall be given by the board in writing to the program's sponsor.

F. Courses with current IDCEC (Interior Design Continuing Education Council) approvals must be submitted no less than 30 days in advance of the presentation. Courses not currently IDCEC approved must be submitted at least 75 days in advance of the presentation. Programs submitted for approval after they have been given will be reviewed by the board, but approval is not guaranteed. Further, programs which are not approved prior to the date scheduled for the program cannot publish that they have been approved by the state of Louisiana as interior design continuing education units.

G. The board shall not have the authority to disapprove earned CEUs of a pre-approved program.
