The Ohio biennial psychology and school psychology license renewal is this year! The deadline for submitting mandatory continuing education (MCE) hours and submitting for a license renewal is August 31, 2018. For licensees licensed before 10/1/16, the requirement is a minimum of 23 hours with at least 4 of those in ethics (defined broadly to include ethics, professional conduct, and/or the role of culture and/or ethnic identity in the provision of psychological services.)
Licensees licensed between 10/1/16 and 9/39/17 are required to have at least 13 MCE hours with at least 4 of those in ethics. Licensees who received their license between 10/1/17 and before 10/1/18 are not required to have any MCE hours but must renew in 2018 and complete 23 MCE hours for 2020.
The Ohio Board of Psychology and other Ohio licensing boards have migrated to an online application, license management, supervision management, and license renewal system. The eLicense Ohio is a secure website at https://elicense.ohoi.gov that allows conducting most Board business and payments online.
Questions about using the eLicense website and renewing a psychology or school psychology license can be directed to the Board of Psychology at 614-466-8808 or emailing info@psy.ohio.gov .
