When and how do you submit your continuing education hours to the Board?

Submitting continuing education hours to the Board is an essential process for maintaining licensure as a dental hygienist. The correct procedure involves using a specific website after completing the continuing education course. This method has been established to streamline the submission process and ensure that the records are captured in a timely and organized manner.

Using the website to submit your continuing education hours allows for quicker processing and provides an electronic trail for both the submitter and the Board. This is also more efficient than email or postal mail submissions, which can be prone to delays or miscommunication.

In many states, including Oklahoma, relying on digital platforms for official transactions reflects a modernized approach to regulatory processes, aligning with best practices for record-keeping and operational efficiency. Thus, submitting continuing education hours through a designated website is the preferred and requisite method as per the regulations set forth by the Board.
