Renewal checklist

  1. Check the expiration date and plan CE at least 60 days before it.
  2. Complete 24 New Hampshire-approved credits with the required ethics hours.
  3. Avoid taking more ethics credits than New Hampshire allows toward the 24-hour requirement.
  4. Confirm CE compliance in the state or NIPR tools before submitting renewal.
  5. If CE is late or the license expires, account for the late CE penalty or new-application path.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Treating the deadline as the expiration date when New Hampshire says complete CE 60 days early.
  • Assuming a late CE completion avoids a penalty because the license has not expired yet.
  • Counting more than 10 ethics credits toward the requirement.
  • Reapplying after expiration before completing CE.

What to watch

  • Ethics must be approved ethics: do not count a general course as ethics unless the course approval says so.
  • Transcript timing matters: a course certificate is useful evidence, but renewal systems generally depend on posted compliance.
  • Line differences matter: confirm CE rules for your license class before buying courses.

Course planning

TSI National can help you plan CE, but NHID and NIPR control CE compliance and renewal approval. Start with the transcript, then choose courses that fill the exact total-hour and ethics-hour gap. You can review training options on the TSI National course results page.
