Maine's Board is reviewing its online CE rules.
In its post-pandemic compliance review, the Board of Chiropractic Licensure acknowledged that virtual and web-based CE options have greatly expanded and stated it will initiate updates to Board Rule Chapter 6 to address them. Until amended rules are adopted, the current structure stands: at least 36 Category 1 hours by physical attendance, and no more than 12 Category 2 hours. We monitor the Board's rulemaking and will update this page the day anything changes.
Maine chiropractors must complete 48 hours of board-approved continuing education each two-year cycle, renewed in every odd-numbered year — at least 36 hours in Category 1, which requires documented physical attendance at approved programs, and up to 12 hours in Category 2, the self-instruction category that includes online courses and webinars. Completion certificates are submitted with the renewal form, and a 90-day extended renewal period with penalty fees follows expiration — but practicing after the expiration date is not permitted. The current cycle ends December 31, 2027.
Online courses are $20/hr — 10% off at 6–9 hours, 20% off at 10+ hours. Discounts apply automatically at checkout, no promo codes.
This page maps the requirements under Maine Board of Chiropractic Licensure Rule Chapter 6 and Title 32 to your renewal planning. CCEDseminars online courses and live webinars serve your Category 2 hours — the 12-hour distance-learning allowance — as PACE-recognized programs. Your 36 Category 1 hours require in-person attendance at board-approved programs, so plan seminar attendance across the biennium.

Documented physical attendance at board-approved programs, on subject matter tied to chiropractic principles and practice — diagnostic procedures, patient care, and patient management. This is the backbone of the Maine requirement, and it cannot be satisfied from a screen.
The self-directed bucket: self-instruction including online courses and webinars, teaching, writing for publication, peer review, accreditation and exam participation, CPR certification, wellness programs, and other board-approved activities.
All Maine chiropractic licenses renew in odd-numbered years — the current cycle ends December 31, 2027. Renewal reminders go to the email on file about 30 days out, and keeping that address current is the licensee's responsibility.
Maine's chiropractic acupuncture credential requires a minimum of 12 hours of postgraduate acupuncture training — and those hours may be applied toward the 48-hour total rather than stacking on top of it.
Bundling discounts apply automatically at checkout when you combine multiple courses in a single order. No promo codes required.
Maine is among the most in-person-weighted CE states in the country: three-quarters of your requirement must be earned in a room, and only a quarter can come from your laptop. The efficient plan works backward from that constraint — lock your 12 Category 2 hours online early (they're the cheap, flexible portion), then distribute Category 1 seminar attendance across the two years rather than chasing 36 live hours in the final autumn of the cycle.
Category 1 programs must be board-approved — confirm a seminar's approval status before registering, from any provider. The Board's post-pandemic rule review may eventually reshape the categories in favor of virtual formats; until adopted rules say otherwise, the 36/12 split governs.
Maine is a submission state: completion certificates go in with the renewal form, clearly identifying each course as Category 1 or Category 2. A 90-day extended renewal period follows expiration with penalty fees — but it is not a grace period to practice: practicing chiropractic after the expiration date is prohibited regardless of the extension window.
The Board actively enforces CE compliance: deficient licensees are placed on documented make-up plans, deficiency hours cannot double-count toward the current cycle, and failure to follow through draws a noncompliance complaint. CCEDseminars issues instant certificates on completion, each stored permanently in your dashboard and labeled for easy category identification at filing time.
48 hours of board-approved continuing education per two-year cycle, with renewal falling in every odd-numbered year — the current cycle ends December 31, 2027. At least 36 hours must be Category 1 (physical attendance) and up to 12 may be Category 2 (self-instruction, including online). Certificates are submitted with the renewal form.
Up to 12 of the 48 — online courses and webinars fall under Category 2, Maine's self-instruction category, which is capped at 12 hours per cycle. The remaining 36 hours require documented physical attendance at board-approved Category 1 programs. The Board has signaled it will review its rules on virtual CE; until amendments are adopted, the 12-hour cap stands.
Category 1 is documented physical attendance at approved programs on chiropractic principles and practice — diagnostics, patient care, patient management. Category 2 is the self-directed bucket: self-instruction (including online CE and webinars), teaching, writing for publication, peer review, exam and accreditation participation, CPR certification, wellness programs, and other activities the Board approves.
Yes — toward your Category 2 hours. As PACE-recognized online programs, CCEDseminars courses and live webinars serve the 12-hour self-instruction allowance. They do not satisfy Category 1, which requires physical attendance; no online program from any provider does under the current rule.
A 90-day extended renewal period follows expiration, with penalty fees assessed by the Board — but the extension does not permit practice: working after the expiration date is prohibited even inside the 90-day window. Licensees found CE-deficient are placed on documented make-up plans, and those hours cannot double-count toward the current cycle's requirement.
