You Can’t Earn CE for Being a Clinical Instructor
Be aware that ARRT doesn’t accept continuing education (CE) credits for clinical instructorship. If you’re a clinical instructor, you can earn CE for preapproved CE activities such as improving educational design or increasing participant engagement.
Is This a New Policy?
No.
Although it’s been a rule for more than five years, some R.T.s continue to report clinical instructorships as CE. Doing so can affect your standing with ARRT. We’re reminding you so that you don’t run into the possibility of CE probation or reinstatement.
For more on this policy, refer to our newly published Education Requirements for Obtaining and Maintaining Certification and Registration.
