What are the CEU renewal requirements?

• A. 40 hours of approved CEU classes over a 2 year period and 20 hours over a one year period
• B. 20 hours of CEU over a 2 year period and 20 hours over a one year period
• C. 40 hours of approved CEU classes over a 2 year period only
• D. 60 hours of CEU over a 2 year period and 20 hours over a one year period

Answer: (C)

The main idea is the renewal cycle and total CEU hours required to maintain licensure. For many addictions counselor licenses, you must complete a total of 40 hours of approved CEU within the two‑year renewal window. The wording “over a 2 year period only” means there isn’t an additional separate annual requirement on top of those 40 hours. That’s why this option fits standard practice: it sets a single 2‑year target of 40 hours from approved providers.

The other options imply extra or differently timed requirements (such as additional hours in a one‑year period or different totals), which don’t align with the typical two‑year renewal rule of 40 hours.
