Bill Summary
A bill to amend 1980 PA 299, entitled"Occupational code,"by amending section 314 (MCL 339.314).
AI Summary
This bill amends the Michigan Occupational Code to modify continuing education requirements for licensed professionals. Specifically, the bill updates existing language about how continuing education programs are approved and introduces a new provision allowing professionals to complete 100% of their required continuing education through online or electronic media. The bill requires that these online programs meet standards established by the department of licensing in consultation with the relevant professional board. This change provides greater flexibility for professionals seeking to maintain their licenses by allowing them to complete continuing education requirements remotely, which can be particularly beneficial for those with scheduling constraints or who live in areas with limited in-person training opportunities. The bill maintains the existing process where professional boards recommend continuing education program approval to the department, while expanding the options for how those educational requirements can be fulfilled.
