Each Physical Therapist and Physical Therapist Assistant will need to complete 24 PDRs (Professional Development Requirements) from August 2017 to July 2019 when they apply for re-licensure for the first time in July 2019, and every year following 2019. PT and PTA licensees will need to accumulate 24 PDR credits within 2 years immediately proceeding renewal. (Example: Those renewing in July 2020 must accumulate 24 PDR’s between August 1, 2018 and July 31, 2020). The rules can be found HERE.

The 24 PDR credits required under R 338.7161(2) for the renewal of a Michigan Physical Therapy license shall meet the following requirements, as applicable: (a) No more than 12 PDR credits shall be earned for approved online continuing education programs or activities during one 24-hour period. (b) A licensee shall not earn PDR credit for a continuing education program or activity that is identical or substantially identical to a program or activity for which the licensee has already earned credit for during that renewal period.

In accordance with section 16204(2) of the code, a licensee shall earn at least 1 PDR credit in the area of pain and symptom management by completing a continuing education program or activity. Credits in pain and symptom management may include, but are not limited to, courses in behavior management, psychology of pain, pharmacology, behavior modification, stress management, clinical applications, and drug interventions as they relate to the practice of physical therapy.

Rule 26. (1) Pursuant to section 16148 of the code, MCL 333.16148, an individual seeking licensure or who is licensed shall complete training in identifying victims of human trafficking (Public Act 343 of 2014 was signed into law on 10/15/14; with an effective date of 1/14/15; applies to all except veterinarian professionals.)

Implicit Bias Training Requirements:

New Applicants for licensure or registration are required to have completed 2 hours of implicit bias training within the 5 years immediately preceding issuance of the license or registration.

Renewing licensees and registrants are required to complete 1 hour of implicit bias training for each year of their license or registration cycle. However, for initial renewal after June 1, 2021, licensees will only need to have 1 hour for each year since the rule’s promulgation date of June 1, 2021.

For example, if you are scheduled to renew your license in August of 2022, you would only be required to have 1 hour of training, even if the length of your license was 3 years. If permitted by the Public Health Code and rules for your profession, this training may be used to satisfy other training or continuing education requirements. Subsequent renewals will require 1 hour of implicit bias training for each year of the license or registration cycle.
