Which statement accurately reflects how CEUs beyond 20 are treated?

• A. They are applied to the current calendar year.
• B. They are added to the next biennial period's CEU requirement.
• C. They are counted toward the 20 CEU limit.
• D. They are not credited in the next biennial period.

Answer: (D)

Understanding how CEUs are counted within the biennial cycle is essential. In New Jersey, hearing aid dispensers must complete a set number of continuing education units every two years, and only up to that required amount can be applied to satisfy the current cycle. If you earn more than the minimum, those extra CEUs do not carry over to the next biennial period and are not credited toward the next cycle. In other words, the surplus beyond the required 20 CEUs won’t count toward future requirements, so they don’t affect the next renewal period.
