License Renewals Due by 11:59 PM on New Year's Eve!
Renew your License
Click the "Click here to Renew Your License" link below to go the online renewal application.

You will need to complete all required professional development (PD) requirements, and submit your renewal application to the Board no later than 11:59 p.m. on New Year's Eve (December 31, 2011). Any applications submitted electronically or postmarked after that time will be charged a delinquent (late) fee before the renewal can be processed. Also, any applications submitted without complete PD documentation will be assessed a delinquent fee and will be unable to be processed.

PD activities reported for this renewal cycle need to have taken place between January 31, 2010 and December 31, 2011 (23 months). As in years past, a random sample of licensees will be required to submit hard copies of your evidence of participation in these PD activities for the Board's biennial audit. Licensees who did not pass the previous audit are typically placed on mandatory audit for the next cycle, and will also need to submit their documentation.

Your current BSPA license remains valid until January 30, 2012. After that date, you may not legally provide services or advertise under that license.
