Frequently asked questions

Got Questions? We've Got Answers.

How many CE hours do Georgia PTs need, and by what deadline?

Georgia requires 30 continuing education (CE) hours every two years. The current renewal deadline is December 31, 2027.

Is there a required Georgia ethics and jurisprudence component?

Yes. At least 4 of the 30 CE hours must cover Georgia Ethics and Jurisprudence. You can meet this by taking an approved course or by passing the Georgia Ethics and Jurisprudence Assessment (GA-JAM), as long as you haven’t used that exam result before.

Who can offer the required Georgia ethics and jurisprudence course?

The required course must be offered by a Georgia college or university with a CAPTE-accredited physical therapy program or by a provider holding a current PTAG approval.

Do I have to take a certain number of “live” hours? Can I complete CE online?

Georgia does not require a specific number of live hours. Online and instructor-led courses are accepted.

What kinds of activities count toward CE, and what doesn’t?

Accepted CE activities include approved courses, workshops, teaching, presenting, authorship, and peer review (each with certain limits). Activities such as in-service training, policy meetings, recreational meetings, and CPR courses by themselves do not count.

Can I carry over extra CE hours to the next cycle?

No. All CE hours must be earned within the current two-year renewal period.

I’m newly licensed. Do I have to complete the full CE requirement?

Not necessarily. If you graduated and passed the national exam during the current biennium, or if you were licensed in the last six months of the renewal cycle, you are typically exempt from CE requirements for that period. Review your board rules for more details.

What is a Summit Subscription and what plans are best for Georgia?

A Summit Subscription gives you unlimited CE for one annual price. For Georgia professionals, both All Access ($329.99/year) and Virtual Access ($309.99/year) meet state CE requirements. With All Access, you can attend live in-person courses across Georgia, plus access live webinars, live streams, and our on-demand library. With Virtual Access, you’ll enjoy unlimited online CE through webinars, live streams, podcasts, and certificate series in 18 practice areas. If you want the flexibility of attending in-person courses in Georgia, All Access is the best fit.

How do I access my courses and certificates?

All courses are managed through your Summit account on our website. You can log in anytime to add new courses, stream on-demand content, join live webinars, and check in at in-person events. Your CE certificates are available immediately after completion and stored in your account for easy access.

Do Summit courses meet Georgia CE requirements?

Yes. Course accreditation information is listed on the Summit website for each course.
