Any quizzes already submitted or added to your ABC record after January 1, 2017 will be retroactively increased to two credits. Please keep in mind that the current policy allowing you to only receive credit once for any particular online continuing education opportunity is still in effect. Therefore, if you’ve taken a Current Pedorthics article–related quiz in previous years and received the one credit, you may not take the same quiz again to receive the two credits. Be sure to take advantage of this new opportunity for double credits. We hope this change helps make earning your required CEUs quicker and easier. PFA's 2018 Media Kit - Available NOW!
