PACE Provider #34015544 · Accepted by the Tennessee Board of Chiropractic Examiners · Auto-reported to CE Broker · Instant certificates
If you practice acupuncture in Tennessee, your CE year has two ceilings, not one. Six of your twenty-four hours must be acupuncture — and of the six hours the Board lets you earn online, only three may be acupuncture. Most doctors learn the second rule from a deficiency notice. This bundle is built to it exactly: three online acupuncture hours (the maximum), three online clinical hours (the rest of the allowance), every completion auto-reported to CE Broker.
The acupuncture half is clinical acupuncture — headache management and mental-health applications — deliberately chosen to steer clear of the philosophy topics the Board excludes from PACE acceptance. The clinical half is a single three-hour infectious-disease course from a diplomate in clinical nutrition. Three courses, three faculty, your entire online allowance spent to the letter of the rule.
| Board rule | This bundle | Status |
| Maximum 6 distance-learning hours per calendar year | 6 hours — the full allowance, no overage | Met exactly |
| Of those 6, no more than 3 may pertain to acupuncture (4)(b) | 3 acupuncture hours — Acupuncture 210 (2) + 208 (1) | Met exactly |
| 6 acupuncture hours required within the 24 (1)(a) | 3 delivered online here; the other 3 must be classroom | 3 of 6 — balance in person |
| Distance courses require a written post-experience examination | Every course ends with a quiz; the certificate documents completion | Met |
| Accepted providers — FCLB PACE consistent with the rule (no philosophy or practice-building) | All three PACE-approved; acupuncture titles are clinical, not philosophy | Met |
| Proof of compliance to CE Broker by Dec 31; records 4 years | Auto-reported to CE Broker; instant certificates in your account | Met |
Don't practice acupuncture? The Tennessee 6-Hour Online Max bundle spends all six hours on clinical topics instead. Acupuncture practice itself requires prior Board authorization under Rule 0260-02-.02(4); this bundle is continuing education, not the credential.

Tennessee requires proof of compliance in your CE Broker account by December 31, and the Board keeps no CE files of its own. Every course in this bundle is auto reported to PACE on completion and generates an instant certificate for the CE Broker submission & four-year file the rule requires. A deficiency found on audit carries a $600 civil penalty plus make-up hours the following year — and for acupuncture DCs the most common deficiency is the acupuncture count, so check that your 6 appear (3 from this bundle, 3 from the classroom) before you renew. Full requirements: Tennessee chiropractic CE guide.
Six hours at $20 per credit hour = $120 base. Six hours crosses the 6–9 hour tier, so the automatic 10% multi-hour discount applies at checkout — $108 total. No promo codes. Prefer different acupuncture topics? Any 3 hours from the acupuncture category plus 3 clinical hours in the same cart earns the same 10% automatically — just keep the acupuncture half at 3.
No. Rule 0260-02-.12(4)(b) caps distance learning at 6 hours per year and states that if you practice acupuncture, 3 of those 6 hours may pertain to acupuncture. The other 3 acupuncture hours — and your remaining 15 general hours — must be classroom. This bundle delivers the 3 online acupuncture hours the rule allows, plus 3 clinical hours to complete your online allowance.
The Board accepts FCLB PACE-approved courses consistent with Rule 0260-02-.12, excluding PACE courses on philosophy or practice-building. Both acupuncture courses here are clinical — headache management and mental-health applications — and all three courses are PACE-approved from CCEDseminars, Provider #34015544. Confirm your personal obligations with the Board.
Because the math has to land on exactly 6 with exactly 3 acupuncture. A single 3-hour clinical course fills the balance cleanly with no overage into a seventh online hour the Board wouldn't credit. Prefer a different 3? Build your own cart — any 3 acupuncture hours plus 3 clinical hours earns the same discount.
Through CE Broker, the Board's official tracking system — Tennessee requires proof of compliance there by December 31. Every course in this bundle requires reporting on completion, and you receive an instant certificate to retain for four years.
$120 base tuition ($20 per credit hour x 6), and the automatic 10% multi-hour discount at checkout brings it to $108 — a $12 savings, no promo codes. All three courses are 100% online and self-paced with instant certificates.
