When are licensees required to renew their license?

In Georgia, physical therapy licensees are required to renew their license biennially on December 31 of every odd year. This schedule is established by the Georgia State Board of Physical Therapy, which oversees the licensing and regulation of practitioners in the state. By setting the renewal date in odd years, it helps to streamline the renewal process for both the Board and the licensees.

This timing allows licensees to maintain their professional credentials and stay up-to-date with continuing education requirements, which are crucial for providing the best patient care. The renewal process also ensures that practitioners are adhering to the necessary standards of practice. Understanding this timeline is essential for all physical therapy professionals in Georgia to maintain compliance and stay eligible to practice.
