Nevada-registered achitects, interior designers and residential designers are required to complete 8 health, safety and welfare CEUs annually, of which 2 must be code-related. The Nevada continuing education requirement went into effect January 1, 2010.  Registrants are responsible for tracking courses and maintaining supporting documentation in case of an audit.  A CEU Tracking Log must be completed and sent with each registrant's renewal for 2011.  Transcripts and other back-up information will not be accepted by the board, unless a registrant is audited.

Mandatory continuing education requirements (MCER) are not, by far, one of the most exciting things out there. That being said, we - at Design Arts Seminars, Inc. - do spend quite a bit of time (so you don't have to) researching the mandatory continuing education requirements (MCER) in place in each state for each of the professions we serve (currently architects, interior designers and landscape architects). We will use this MCER section of our blog to address mandatory continuing education requirements along with any questions or comments you may have.
