*Specialty continuing education (CE) credits, such as those for X-Ray, Professional Boundaries, and Acupuncture, that exceed the required amount can be counted towards your total annual CE requirement. If you don’t need the specialty CE credit, it can be used towards a regular CE requirement. For example, if you take an acupuncture CE credit, that can count towards an acupuncture CE credit or a regular CE credit.
