Continuing Education

New Hampshire licensed Naturopathic Doctors are required to renew their license every 2 years and provide documentation of having completed 45 credit hours of continuing education during that renewal cycle. Of those 45 hours, they must complete 12 pharmacology / pharmacognosy hours and 3 pain management / addiction disorder hours. If licensees hold specialty certificates in naturopathic childbirth or acupuncture, at least 12 of the required 45 credit hours shall be attributable to courses specifically related to those fields. See Nat 405.02 for complete details.

About the NHAND CE Committee

The NHAND CE Committee reviews applications from current NHAND members seeking approval of continuing education courses not already approved for CE for NDs. The committee is comprised of 3 NH licensed Naturopathic Doctors. The NHAND CE Committee does not authorize, issue or grant CEs certificates for courses. Approved courses are added to a list that is available on this site and shared with the Naturopathic Board of Examiners. The committee uses the criteria in Nat 405.03 to determine eligibility for CE approval.
