How many continuing education units are required for RDHAP license renewal?

  1. 20 units

  2. 25 units

  3. 30 units

  4. 35 units

The correct answer is: 25 units

For the renewal of an RDHAP license, the requirement is to complete 25 continuing education units. This requirement is in place to ensure that dental hygienists remain current with best practices, advances in dentistry, and relevant changes to laws and regulations affecting their practice. Continuing education is critical in maintaining professional competence and delivering high-quality patient care. The specific number of units required can vary for different professional designations, but for RDHAPs, the 25-unit requirement aligns with the standards set forth by the relevant regulatory body. This stipulation helps dental hygienists to stay engaged in lifelong learning and fosters the ongoing professional development necessary for effective practice.
