What is the biennial maximum CE hours for CODA-accredited school lectures?

• A. Maximum 12 hours per biennium.
• B. Maximum 15 hours per biennium.
• C. Maximum 18 hours per biennium.
• D. No maximum.

Answer: (B)

The key idea is that CE hours have caps by source, not just a total overall requirement. For lectures delivered at CODA-accredited dental schools, only a limited amount can count toward your biennial CE total. The cap is 15 hours per biennium. This means you can claim up to 15 hours from those CODA-accredited school lectures, but hours beyond that don’t count toward the CE requirement from that source. The total biennial CE still needs to be met through a variety of activities, so other formats (online courses, in-service, self-study, etc.) will fill the rest. The other options don’t fit because they either set the cap too low or too high, whereas 15 hours is the established limit for CODA-accredited school lectures.
