D.C. Mun. Regs. tit. 17, r. 17-4018
Each Board may exempt an individual applicant for renewal of a license, registration, or certification from some or all of the continuing education requirements to which the applicant is subject, if the applicant demonstrates with sufficient documentation, to the satisfaction of the Board, that the applicant did not satisfy the continuing education requirements because of:
Notwithstanding any applicable regulatory requirement, each Board may, in extraordinary circumstances, approve and accept continuing education courses that are completed by remote instruction in place of any continuing education that is required to be completed by in-person instruction for renewals of licenses, registrations, or certificates if the Board determines the attainment of such in person instruction presents undue hardship or risk for the Board's health professionals.
For the purpose of§ 4018.2, the phrase "remote instruction" means the delivery of instruction to a recipient of continuing education who is not physically present with the instructor.
When a Board acts in accordance with § 4018.2, it shall publish a notice of the action on a web page dedicated to the business of the Board. The notice shall specify each health occupation to which the Board's action applies.
This section shall not restrict the Board of Medicine from authorizing an exemption in accordance with the additional standards set forth in § 4614.5.
