18VAC25-21-240. Administration of courses.

A. Approved course providers must comply with the requirements of this chapter when providing approved courses. Failure of a course provider to comply with the board's requirements contained in 18VAC25-21-230 or any other provision of this chapter at any time after receiving approval from the board may result in the board withdrawing its approval for a course or a specific offering of the course.

B. Course approval is not transferable from the course provider to whom it was originally issued.

C. The approved course providers must award a certificate of completion to those attendees who successfully complete the course that includes the sponsor identification number of the course provider issued by the board office, name of the course, number of continuing education credit hours awarded, and the date of the course. Course providers must only award continuing education credit hours in the amount as approved.

D. Attendance must be verified and documented at the beginning and end of the course and monitored during the course. No credit may be awarded to attendees who arrived late, left early, or missed a portion of the course or failed to accomplish the learning objectives of the course. Further, such individuals may not be awarded a certificate of completion by the course provider.

E. All records related to an approved course must be maintained for four years from the date of the course and such records must be provided to the board or its duly authorized agents upon request. Records that must be maintained include time, date, and location of the course; course materials; course curriculum; instructor; instructor qualifications; learning objectives; assessment of attendees for verification of achievement of the learning objectives; attendance rosters; and records of those attendees who successfully completed the course and those who did not and reasons why attendees noted as not successfully completing the course did not successfully complete the course.
