How many CE hours do I need each year in Indiana?

Indiana requires 24 CE hours every two-year renewal period, with no more than 12 hours obtained in each licensure year. Most chiropractors plan on 12 hours per year to stay on track for renewal.

Are there specific topic requirements for Indiana chiropractic CE?

Within the 24 total CE hours per renewal period, chiropractors must complete 8 hours focused on risk management and public health, often scheduled as 4 hours per licensure year.

Does Indiana accept online chiropractic CE courses?

Yes. The Indiana Board of Chiropractic Examiners accepts distance learning when it is provided by an approved organization, including online courses and live webinars from FCLB-PACE recognized providers.

What are the rules for new chiropractic licensees in Indiana?

Indiana adjusts CE expectations for new licensees based on the initial license issue date. Some new licensees may have a reduced requirement or no CE due for the first partial renewal cycle, so it is important to verify details with the Board.

How long should I keep my Indiana CE certificates?

Chiropractors in Indiana must retain CE documentation for at least three years after the end of the licensing period for audit purposes. Many doctors choose to keep records for four to five years as a best-practice.

Indiana ICBE Requirements — What You Need to Know

Two sections cover the full Indiana ICBE picture: the 24-hour breakdown under 846 IAC 1-8-1 with the per-year and per-day caps, and the audit-ready posture under 846 IAC 1-8-2 (4-year certificate retention) that CCEDseminars maintains for every Indiana licensee. Open each card below.

Required Topic Hours — What Indiana Specifies

Indiana is unusually online-friendly: 846 IAC 1-8-1 imposes no statutory live-hour minimum, allowing all 24 hours to be earned via distance learning from an approved organization listed in IC 25-1-4-0.2. The hour count is structured around an 8-hour public health / risk management requirement (4 hours per licensure year), with the remaining ~16 hours in approved-organization CE, capped at 12 hours per licensure year and 8 hours per day.

8 hrs Public Health / Risk Management Required

8 hrs total per biennium with 4 hrs minimum per licensure year, in public health and/or risk management per 846 IAC 1-8-1(d). May include 846 IAC 1-3-2 governing topics. CCEDseminars risk management and documentation courses are eligible here.

Approved online courses

~16 hrs Approved-Org CE Every biennium

Remaining ~16 hours of the 24-hour total in approved-organization CE per IC 25-1-4-0.2 categories — including national practitioner organizations (e.g. FCLB/PACE), CCE-accredited chiropractic colleges, and federal/state government health agencies.

Approved online courses

12-Hr Annual Cap Per licensure year

Per 846 IAC 1-8-1(c): a maximum of 12 hours must be obtained within each licensure year of the biennial renewal period. No hours carry over from one biennium to the next.

Pace yourself across both years.

All 24 Hrs Online Eligible Online-friendly

Indiana imposes no live-hour minimum. Per 846 IAC 1-8-1 and ICBE policy, the Board "will accept any part or all of the required continuing education hours by distance learning that is provided by an approved organization as specified in Indiana Code IC 25-1-4-0.2."

Approved online courses

First-year exempt: per 846 IAC 1-8-1(b) a licensee is not required to complete continuing education for the year the initial license is issued. Initial license issued between Jul 1 of an even-numbered year and Jul 1 of an odd-numbered year requires only 12 hrs CE + 4 hrs public health / risk management at first renewal (per Indiana State Chiropractic Association). Dry needling: a separate 50-hour face-to-face course is required before performing dry needling on any patient per 846 IAC 1-8-1(g) — does NOT count toward the 24-hour biennium. Bundling discounts apply automatically at checkout when you combine multiple ICBE-aligned CCEDseminars courses in a single order.

Staying Audit-Ready in Indiana

Indiana uses self-attestation at renewal — chiropractors confirm CE completion on the form provided by the Indiana Professional Licensing Agency (IPLA) rather than provider-direct reporting, and the ICBE audits a percentage of renewals each cycle. Per 846 IAC 1-8-2, each licensee must retain certificates of completion for four (4) years after the licensure period in which the credit hours were earned, and must present them upon request of the ICBE / IPLA. CCEDseminars issues an instant certificate the moment you finish, and a permanent copy stays in your account dashboard for the full 4-year audit retention window.

Audit posture matters in Indiana because seminars not approved under 846 IAC 1-8-1(a) "will not be accepted as credit for license renewal," and hours that exceed the 12-hour-per-year or 8-hour-per-day caps are non-creditable. Keep a personal copy of every certificate organized by licensure year and topic (public health / risk management vs general clinical), align documentation to the format the IPLA renewal form specifies, and align workflow with the standards the CCEDseminars Audit-Ready Workflows course covers. The goal is a July 1, 2026 renewal that needs zero scrambling at the deadline and zero anxiety if the ICBE requests records during the 4-year retention window.

Indiana ICBE Chiropractic CE — Frequently Asked Questions

Five high-impact questions Indiana chiropractors ask most about ICBE renewal. Open each to expand.

How many CE hours do Indiana chiropractors need per renewal for ICBE?

Indiana chiropractors must complete 24 hours of board-approved continuing education per biennial renewal period ending July 1 of each even-numbered year, with the current cycle ending July 1, 2026. Of the 24 hours, 8 hours must be in public health and/or risk management with at least 4 hours per licensure year per 846 IAC 1-8-1(d). A maximum of 12 hours may be obtained within each licensure year of the biennium per 846 IAC 1-8-1(c) and a maximum of 8 hours per day per 846 IAC 1-8-1(f). All 24 hours may be earned online or by distance learning when provided by an approved organization listed in IC 25-1-4-0.2 — Indiana imposes no statutory live-hour minimum. First-year exempt: no CE is required for the year the initial license is issued per 846 IAC 1-8-1(b).

What live and online formats does ICBE accept for chiropractic CE?

The Indiana State Board of Chiropractic Examiners accepts board-approved CE delivered in any format — live in-person, live-streamed, on-demand online, or independent study — provided the program is offered by an approved organization listed in IC 25-1-4-0.2. The 10 categories of approved organizations include the United States Department of Education, the Council on Post-Secondary Education, federal/state/local government agencies, CCE-accredited chiropractic colleges, national practitioner organizations such as FCLB PACE recognized providers, the American Chiropractic Association, the International Chiropractors Association, and any other organization approved by the Board. CCEDseminars is a PACE-recognized provider accepted by Indiana per FCLB summary, delivering on-demand online clinical CE plus PACE-recognized live webinars in public health, risk management, ethics, and documentation — with instant certificates the moment you finish for the 4-year ICBE / IPLA audit retention window per 846 IAC 1-8-2.

Which required topics must Indiana chiropractors complete each biennium?

Inside the 24-hour biennial total, Indiana requires 8 hours in public health and/or risk management with 4 hours minimum per licensure year per 846 IAC 1-8-1(d) — the rule allows either category (or both) to satisfy the requirement, and may include topics governed by 846 IAC 1-3-2. The remaining ~16 hours come from approved-organization CE in any clinical or practice area. Indiana does not require sexual boundaries training, AIDS awareness training, or other state-specific mandatory topics beyond the public health / risk management category. Dry needling is governed separately: a 50-hour face-to-face course is required before performing dry needling on any patient per 846 IAC 1-8-1(g), and those 50 hours do NOT count toward the 24-hour biennium. Acupuncture-practicing chiropractors should verify whether additional jurisdictional acupuncture CE applies under Indiana acupuncture practice rules.

What is the best Indiana chiropractic CE provider for ICBE renewal?

The best fit for an Indiana chiropractor depends on how the 8-hour public health / risk management requirement is sequenced against the remaining ~16 clinical hours, plus how the 12-hour annual cap and 8-hour daily cap are managed across the two-year biennium. CCEDseminars is PACE Provider #34015544 accepted by the Indiana State Board of Chiropractic Examiners per FCLB summary, qualifies as an approved organization under IC 25-1-4-0.2(7) (national practitioner organization) and 25-1-4-0.2(10) (Board-approved organization), delivers on-demand online clinical CE that satisfies the entire 24-hour biennium since Indiana imposes no live-hour minimum, plus PACE-recognized live webinars covering risk management, ethics, and documentation, and issues instant certificates for the 4-year ICBE / IPLA audit retention obligation under 846 IAC 1-8-2. Other Indiana chiropractic CE platforms focus more narrowly on a single format or a single requirement tier, which can fragment a biennium across multiple vendors when CCEDseminars can cover all 24 hours plus the 8-hour public health / risk management subset in one place.

How much do CCEDseminars online chiropractic CE courses cost?

CCEDseminars online chiropractic continuing education courses are $20 per CE hour with automatic bundling discounts at checkout — purchase 6 to 9 hours and 10% comes off automatically, or purchase 10 or more hours and 20% comes off automatically. There are no discount codes to enter and no minimum bundle restrictions — you build your own bundle from over 1,000 PACE-recognized CE hours across the live webinar calendar and on-demand catalog, and the discount applies the moment your cart crosses the 6-hour or 10-hour threshold. Live webinars and on-demand clinical courses are eligible. Certificates issue instantly the moment each course is completed for your ICBE audit records.
