This page is the Georgia renewal-side companion to your licensing guide. It breaks down the current CE rules, self-study limits, annuity best-interest training, and exam supervision details in plain English.
Georgia’s continuing education page says resident licensees must complete their CE every other year, on or before the last day of the birth month. The hours depend on the licensee’s experience and, in some cases, professional designations.
If a Georgia self-study course includes a final exam, the supervised-exam rule matters. This is where many online course buyers get tripped up, so it helps to know the process before you enroll.
Georgia’s CE page includes a specific annuity training section, which matters because people often confuse it with ordinary CE. It is better treated as its own rule with its own timing.
If a Georgia visitor only keeps a handful of links, these are the ones most likely to matter during a normal renewal cycle.
Georgia points licensees to transcript tools through the licensing system so they can see compliance status, completed courses, and carryover information.
Georgia’s provider page is also where the current self-study and class-attendance rule changes are posted, so it is useful even for licensees.
Anyone who landed on the CE page but is still pre-license should jump over to the Georgia licensing page instead of trying to piece everything together from renewal rules.
Georgia’s CE page says resident licensees complete CE every other year, on or before the last day of their birth month.
The standard Georgia track is 24 hours with 3 hours in ethics, though the total can drop to 20 hours for certain experienced licensees and 12 hours for certain designation holders.
Not automatically. Georgia’s updated education-provider rules now limit CE to 24 hours for class attendance and 12 hours for self-study and online formats.
It is better treated as its own requirement. Georgia’s CE page separates the annuity best-interest requirement from the regular CE summary and ties it to Rule 120-2-94.
Yes, that is the safer reading of the provider guidance. Georgia expects a supervised final exam workflow with a qualifying proctor and supporting affidavit rather than a student-only honor statement.
Use Marshmallow CE's approved Georgia 3-Hour Ethics course page instead of a generic catalog. After the supervised final exam is complete, use the Georgia proctor affidavit page for documentation.
The state page is for compliance clarity. The approved Marshmallow CE Georgia ethics course is where you can turn that clarity into a finished renewal step.
