Renewal Reminders
- Start your CE requirements early — don't wait until the last few months before your deadline.
- Keep copies of all CE certificates. Many boards require proof of completion during audits.
- Check whether your state accepts online/self-study CE or requires a portion to be live (in-person or webinar).
- Set a calendar reminder at least 60 days before your renewal deadline to ensure you have time to complete any remaining requirements.
- Visit the Rhode Island Board of Pharmacy website for the most current renewal instructions and fee schedules.
