Full OT/OTA CEU Requirements in Oklahoma
Here are the occupational therapy continuing education requirements for coursework in Oklahoma:
These were copied from the Oklahoma Administrative Code, effective 2020.
(b) Continuing education for renewal.
(1) Continuing education for renewal of licensure has been established to require therapists’ involvement in activities which keep their skills and knowledge of current practice up to date. A point is the equivalent of 1 contact hour. Twenty contact hours every 2 years will be required. Penalties for failure to comply with continuing education requirements may be assessed after notice and hearing as required by law. Penalties may include imposition of additional continuing education contact hours, probation of license, suspension of license, or revocation of license. Failure to produce records of continuing education rebuts the presumption that continuing education requirements have been completed. The willful and intentional misrepresentation of compliance with continuing education requirements shall constitute prima facie evidence of a fraudulent application for licensure renewal.
This doc goes on to describe other requirements. I recommend you read the rules in full.
Steps for Renewing Your OT License
Step 1: Look up your OT/OTA license.
To begin the process, I always double-check that my license is displaying correctly. You can look up your Oklahoma occupational therapist or occupational therapy assistant license here.
Step 2: Confirm the Oklahoma OT continuing education requirements.
It’s always good to double check for any updates to your licensing cycle. You can do so with the resources above. And, please reach out to me if you see any discrepancies.
Step 3: Earn your CEU hours.
Ok, now that you know your requirements, it is time to start earning those CEUs! There are of course a lot of options out there, but we hope you consider checking out the courses offered by OT Potential.

Ok, now it’s time for the big moment.
