Change to ASRT approval guidelines for CE providers

As you may know, CE courses must be approved by a RCEEM for CE credit to be accepted by the ARRT and other types of licensing boards. Our courses are approved by the ASRT. We must follow their guidelines as a CE provider and they have updated their guidelines for the amount of test questions required for approval of CE credit. As of March 2020, any new course sent in for approval must have 8 questions per credit hour and there is no longer a cap of 120 questions. This means our new courses will be following these new guidelines and higher credit courses will be over 120 questions. Information on amount of test questions can also be found on our course product pages on the website. If at any time you have questions about a test, please contact us. We’re happy to help!
