[Comment: Information regarding the availability
and effective date of the materials incorporated by reference in this rule can
be found in paragraph (G) of rule 4723-1-03 of the Administrative Code.]

(A) Except in the case of the first
renewal of a current, valid certificate to practice as a community health
worker, to be eligible to renew a certificate, a community health worker shall
complete fifteen contact hours of continuing education during each renewal
period. For each reporting period, at least one of the required hours of
continuing education must be directly related to Chapter 4723. of the Revised
Code and the rules of the board in Chapters 4723-1 to 4723-27 of the
Administrative Code. To qualify as continuing education directly related to
Chapter 4723. of the Revised Code and the rules of the board, the continuing
education must be approved by an OBN approver, or offered by an OBN approved
provider unit headquartered in the state of Ohio. For each reporting period, at
least one of the required hours of continuing education must be directly
related to establishing and maintaining professional boundaries. This
requirement applies to the reporting period set forth in paragraph (B) of this
rule.

(B) A community health worker who requests that the certificate
to practice as a community health worker be placed on inactive status shall not
be required to meet the continuing education requirement for the period of time
the certificate is on inactive status. To reactivate the certificate the
community health worker shall complete fifteen hours of continuing education
that meet the requirements as set forth in paragraph (A) of this rule, during
the twenty-four months immediately prior to the application for
reactivation.

(C) The holder of a lapsed certificate shall complete fifteen
hours of continuing education that meet the requirements of paragraph (A) of
this rule during the twenty-four months immediately prior to the application
for reinstatement of the certificate.

(D) A community health worker shall verify completion of the
continuing education required by this rule on the "Community Health Worker
Renewal Application" or "Community Health Worker Reactivation and
Reinstatement Application" for certificate renewal, reactivation or
reinstatement, and at the discretion of the board, may be required to show
proof of completion of the approved continuing education. Failure to verify or
provide proof of completion shall result in ineligibility to renew, reactivate
or reinstate a certificate until proof of completion of the continuing
education requirements is provided to the board.

(E) A community health worker who earns more than the number of
contact hours of continuing education required for a single reporting period
cannot apply the excess hours to satisfy future continuing education
requirements.

(F) A community health worker who is ineligible to renew or
reinstate a certificate due to failure to meet the continuing education
requirements, may be required to show completion of up to thirty contact hours
of continuing education, that meets the requirements of this rule, before their
certificate is renewed or reinstated by the board. The continuing education
shall be obtained within the forty-eight months immediately prior to the
application for renewal or reinstatement.

(G) A community health worker may use a waiver to satisfy the
continuing education requirement only one time, and must notify the board in
writing requesting the waiver. Once requested the waiver cannot be rescinded
and use of the waiver shall be documented on the community health
workers certification record.

(H) The calculation of contact hours based on credit hours earned
in an academic institution shall be made according to paragraph (B) of rule
4723-14-04 of the Administrative Code.

(I) Educational activities that satisfy the requirements of this
rule are the same as those set forth in rule 4723-14-05 of the Administrative
Code.

(J) The board may conduct a retrospective audit of any holder of
a certificate to practice as a community health worker to determine compliance
with this rule. The audit shall be conducted according to rule 4723-14-07 of
the Administrative Code. A community health worker shall retain proof of
completion of approved continuing education for a period of six
years.

(K) A community health worker certificate
holder who is engaged in active military duty may be eligible for an extension
of time to complete continuing education as provided in rule 4723-2-04 of the
Administrative Code.
