Can I complete all of my Tennessee dental CE online?

No. Tennessee requires a portion of your CE to be completed as home-study/textbook-based education rather than web-based/online education. The classification depends on how the instructional material is delivered—not how you submit your test or receive your certificate.

BUT with HSS home-study courses, you study the course material in a textbook or static PDF. You may then submit your answers electronically through our website or by email. Submitting your test electronically does not change the course from home-study to online/web-based education.

Hygienists may take 50% or 15 credit hours online or web based. Non-online courses are limited to 50% or 15 credit hours. Non-online means independent study of textbook or static course material. Submitting your completed answer sheet electronically or online does not change a home-study course into an online/web-based course.
