Which statement best describes CE credit for attending Board of Dentistry meetings?

• A. No CE credit is granted for attending Board of Dentistry meetings.
• B. At least 1 hour of CE credit is granted.
• C. CE credit is awarded for 2 hours per renewal cycle.
• D. Up to 4 hours of CE credit per renewal cycle.

Answer: (D)

The idea being tested is that CE credits can be earned for certain professional activities beyond traditional coursework, including attendance at regulatory board meetings. Attending Board of Dentistry meetings counts toward continuing education, but there is a limit: you can receive up to four hours of CE credit for the entire renewal cycle. This recognizes that staying informed about regulatory actions and board updates is part of professional responsibility, while keeping the CE hours focused on meaningful, teachable content rather than treating every meeting as unlimited credit. In Florida, the license renewal cycle is biennial, so these four hours accumulate across that two-year period. The other statements would misstate the policy: there isn’t zero credit, there isn’t a guaranteed minimum of one hour, and the cycle limit isn’t only two hours—it’s up to four.
