SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:
Continuing competency for funeral services licensees, funeral directors, and embalmers. Revises the existing requirements for five hours of annual continuing education for all funeral services licensees, funeral directors, and embalmers to authorize the Board to prescribe continued competence requirements. The Board must annually determine whether there have been any significant revisions in the practice of or the laws and regulations governing funeral services and, if revisions have occurred that will require that licensees obtain additional education in their relevant practices, the Board must prescribe continuing education accordingly and must notify relevant licensees of the requirement at the time renewal notices are next sent. The notice to licensees must specify the content and number of hours, not to exceed five hours, which must be obtained within one year from approved providers and attested to on the next renewal application. The Board may approve persons who provide or accredit continuing education in order to accomplish the purposes of this section and shall provide for the reporting of satisfactory completion and record retention of any required continuing education courses.
