What is the maximum number of continuing education hours one can earn per calendar day?

In the context of Georgia's guidelines for continuing education in physical therapy, a licensed physical therapist or physical therapist assistant can earn a maximum of 10 continuing education hours in a single calendar day. This limit promotes balance and ensures that providers engage meaningfully with the material rather than attempting to complete an excessive number of hours in a short span of time.

Setting a cap on the hours is important as it encourages effective learning and retention of information, while also safeguarding against burnout that could arise from trying to cram too many hours into one day. The structure fosters a more measured approach to ongoing professional development, allowing practitioners to partake in courses that enhance their skills and knowledge without compromising their well-being or the quality of their learning.
