Renewal Audit

Renewal Audit A. Following the conclusion of each renewal period, the Division of PLACE or the Division of Peer Recovery and Support, respectively, reserves the right to audit randomly-selected renewed individuals to determine compliance with the continuing education requirement. The audit process will include a sample of randomly-selected renewed individuals. B. If an individual is randomly selected for audit, both the individual and the program SDO will be notified. Along with the notification, the respective Division will provide detailed instructions for audit procedures. C. If randomly selected for audit, the renewed individual (in conjunction with the program SDO) will be required to submit to the respective Division documentation to validate successful completion of the renewal continuing education requirement. (Examples of sufficient documentation would include, but are not limited to: training records, staff development printouts verified by the SDO, conference certificates, and official college transcripts). This documentation must be submitted within a deadline prescribed by the respective Division. D. In the case of noncompliance, the audited individual will have up to six months to comply, during which time the credential will be placed in Suspended Status (covered more fully in Chapter Twenty-One); the individual will be unable to practice with his/her credential during the period of suspension. Failure to comply within six months will result in the automatic loss of credentialing.
