New Jersey chiropractors must complete 30 continuing education credits during each biennial registration period, due by August 31 of odd-numbered years, and within those 30 credits at least 2 must cover State laws and rules governing chiropractic professional ethics or recordkeeping and documentation, and at least 2 must be in nutrition education, under the New Jersey State Board of Chiropractic Examiners (N.J.A.C. 13:44E-1A.5). One credit equals 50 minutes of instruction, no more than 10 credits may be earned in a single calendar day, and credit is granted only for post-doctoral coursework. This page covers the requirements, the Board itself, how online and live formats are treated, and what to keep for audit.
Always confirm your personal obligations with the New Jersey State Board of Chiropractic Examiners, Division of Consumer Affairs. The requirements below reflect N.J.A.C. 13:44E-1A.5 and N.J.S.A. 45:9-41.28.

A licensee applying for biennial renewal must have completed 30 continuing education credits during the preceding biennial period. The registration period closes August 31 of odd-numbered years.
New Jersey defines one credit as 50 minutes of instruction — not a clock hour. When comparing programs, check how a provider counts its hours against that definition.
The Board grants no more than 10 credits for programs taking place in a single calendar day. Its stated reasoning is that the quality of learning falls off after ten hours, so a marathon weekend cannot be used to clear the whole requirement.
Within the 30 credits, New Jersey specifies two distinct minimums:
State law & ethics — 2 credits.
Study of State laws and rules governing chiropractic professional ethics, or recordkeeping and documentation as it pertains to the practice of chiropractic in New Jersey. Note the state-specific framing — generic ethics coursework may not satisfy this.
Nutrition education — 2 credits.
A minimum of 2 credits in nutrition education. New Jersey is unusual in mandating nutrition hours for chiropractors; the requirement arrived alongside the statutory authority to provide dietary and nutritional counseling.
The remaining 26 credits are general chiropractic continuing education, subject to the course-level and approval rules below.
Acceptable coursework includes subject matter taught by accredited chiropractic schools, colleges, institutions and universities, or in subject matter tested for licensure, that has been approved by Providers of Approved Continuing Education (PACE) and/or the Board.
Read the next clause carefully, because most CE summaries omit it: the Board expressly retains the right to reject a PACE-approved program — including one that does not have significant intellectual or practical content dealing primarily with the practice of chiropractic or with licensees' professional and ethical obligations. PACE recognition is a strong signal in New Jersey, not an automatic guarantee.
CCEDseminars is sponsored by Texas Chiropractic College and is an FCLB PACE-recognized provider (#34015544). Providers may submit course applications to the Board at chiropracticce@dca.njoag.gov. As always, confirm acceptance for your own renewal.
The Board will not grant credit for basic courses required for graduation from a chiropractic college or university, or for initial licensure. Credit is granted only for post-doctoral courses designed to build upon basic knowledge, or to bring licensees up to date on new developments relating to the practice of chiropractic. Refresher material at an entry level is unlikely to qualify.
New Jersey treats self-paced online/on-demand coursework differently from live, interactive webinars. On-demand credits are commonly reported as capped at 12 of the 30, while live webinar credits are accepted more broadly — a frequently used plan is 12 on-demand credits plus the balance through live webinars.
Confirm the current format limits directly with the Board before you build your plan around them, and check that each course you take is approved for New Jersey.
New licensees. A licensee who completed an accredited graduate chiropractic education program within 12 months of the commencement of the biennial registration period is not required to complete the continuing education requirement for that period.
Reporting and records. There is no routine CE reporting — you attest at renewal. Retain your certificates of completion in case the Board audits. CCEDseminars issues an instant certificate at completion and keeps a permanent copy in your account dashboard.
The New Jersey State Board of Chiropractic Examiners sits within the New Jersey Division of Consumer Affairs, part of the Department of Law and Public Safety. The Board licenses chiropractors in New Jersey, sets and enforces the standards of practice, handles biennial registration, and approves continuing education programs.

New Jersey requires 30 continuing education credits during each biennial registration period, due by August 31 of odd-numbered years. One credit equals 50 minutes of instruction (N.J.A.C. 13:44E-1A.5).
At least 2 credits must be in the study of State laws and rules governing chiropractic professional ethics, or recordkeeping and documentation as it pertains to practice in New Jersey. At least 2 further credits must be in nutrition education. The remaining 26 credits are general chiropractic education.
Yes, courses approved by PACE and/or the Board may count — but the Board expressly retains the right to reject a PACE-approved program, including one lacking significant intellectual or practical content related to chiropractic practice or professional obligations. PACE recognition is a strong signal in New Jersey, not an automatic guarantee.
