How compliance is checked

CE is verified at renewal: a pharmacist who has not completed the required CE may not renew or work until the license is restored with CE completion certificates; renewing without completing CE may subject the license to disciplinary action. The Board may extend the CE deadline for illness, military service, geographic isolation, or other hardship.
