Kansas Chiropractic Continuing Education Requirements

Kansas carries one of the heaviest CE loads in the country: 50 hours every year, structured as at least 20 Category I hours (live/interactive), 1 Category III hour (pain management), and the balance in Category II self-paced study, under the Kansas State Board of Healing Arts' Article 15 rules. CCEDseminars pairs monthly live evening webinars with a deep on-demand catalog to cover both major categories — details in the sections below.

Full Requirements Breakdown
RequirementDetail
Total annual hours50 CE hours each year for license renewal
Category I minimumAt least 20 hours of live/interactive instruction — live webinars and interactive online courses qualify
Category III minimumAt least 1 hour in pain management topics (requirement in place since the 2022 renewal year)
Category IIRemaining hours via self-paced study: independent online courses, self-instructional materials, and similar formats
RenewalAnnual — confirm your license expiration date with the Kansas State Board of Healing Arts
Course approvalCE for Kansas DCs is reviewed, credited, and classified by category — verify each course's Kansas approval status before enrolling
Category I: Clearing Your 20 Live/Interactive Hours

Twenty live hours a year is the requirement that keeps Kansas doctors driving to weekend seminars — but live, interactive webinars qualify as Category I, and CCEDseminars runs 8–10 hours of live evening webinars every month (typically 7–9 PM CT, 2 CE hours each).

The math: two evening webinars a month for ten months clears your entire Category I load from your desk — no travel, no lost patient days. See this month's live webinar schedule and check each course's Kansas approval status in your account.

Category III: The Pain Management Hour

Since the 2022 renewal year, Kansas requires at least 1 hour of Category III CE in pain management topics. Pain-focused courses such as Orthopedics 208: Managing Chronic Pain or Nutrition 249: New Strategies for Pain Management may apply — confirm each course's Category III classification for Kansas before counting it toward this requirement.

Category II: Filling the Balance with Self-Paced Study

Everything beyond your Category I and III minimums can come from Category II self-paced study — independent online courses, self-instructional materials, journal-based learning, and similar formats. That's a fit for on-demand CE at $20 per credit hour across 30+ clinical categories: complete courses at your own pace, evenings or between patients, with instant certificates on completion.

Course Approvals & Reporting Your Hours

Kansas works differently than blanket-acceptance states: continuing education for Kansas DCs is reviewed, assigned credit hours, and classified by category before it counts. When you log in to your CCEDseminars account, each course is clearly marked as approved or not approved for your state — check before you enroll, and confirm category classification for anything you're counting toward a Category I or III minimum.

Licensees maintain and submit evidence of CE completion per Kansas State Board of Healing Arts requirements. Your CCEDseminars certificate generates instantly on completion — download and file each one so your renewal documentation is ready when you are.

Plan Your 50 Hours + Recommended Kansas Pathways

Fifty hours a year rewards a system, not a scramble. A clean Kansas rhythm: two live evening webinars per month (Category I handled by October) + one pain-management hour early in the year (Category III done) + self-paced courses banked monthly for the Category II balance.

At Kansas volumes, bundling is decisive: any cart of 10+ CE hours triggers an automatic 20% discount at checkout — no promo code — and a 50-hour year gives you five shots at it. Build a custom bundle.

Going deeper: certification programs convert a heavy annual requirement into a career credential — 48-hour tracks like clinical neurology or clinical nutrition nearly cover a full Kansas year by themselves.
