Proof of Compliance
RECORD KEEPING is the responsibility of the licensee. Adequate records must be maintained for a minimum of four years for auditing purposes. Examples of records required include, but are not limited to, attendance verification records in the form of completion certificates, signed attendance receipts, paid receipts, a copy of a listing of all attendees signed by a person in responsible charge of the activity or other documentation verifying attendance and CEU credits earned. If audited, submission of specific information on each activity is required. Simply stating "attending education activities at ABC Company" is not acceptable.

Non-Compliance Penalties
Failure to comply with these requirements will result in nonrenewal of the architects license or other disciplinary action.

Exceptions and Exemptions
EXEMPTIONS are provided for those licensees serving honorably on full-time active duty in the armed forces of the United States and for those licensees serving as government employees working as an architect and assigned to duty outside the United States. In these instances, the licensee may renew his/her license without completing the CEU requirement for the renewal period during which the licensee served. A licensed architect shall be deemed to have complied with the CEU requirements if for not less than 21 months of the preceding two year period of licensure, he or she was a resident of another state or district having continuing education requirements for licensure and the licensed architect can attest that he or she has complied with all requirements of that state or district for practice therein. If you are exempt, complete the renewal form, submit the renewal fee and send supporting documentation for the exemption.
