Arizona Psychologist Continuing Education Requirements

Arizona-licensed psychologists are required to earn 60 hours of continuing education (CE) credits every 2 years for license renewal on April 30th of odd-numbered years. Of the 60 hours, 4 hours must be in ethics and 4 hours must be on domestic violence or child abuse. A minimum of 40 hours must be earned in Category 1 credit with APA-approval. All 60 hours may be earned through online/home study courses offered through APA-approved sponsors and that provide a certificate of completion.

Professional Development Resources is approved by the American Psychological Association (APA) to sponsor continuing education for psychologists and maintains responsibility for all programs and content. Arizona psychologists may earn all 60 hours for renewal through online courses available at www.pdresources.org.
