The State of Rhode Island does not require NCCAOM Certification for acupuncture license renewal. However, the rules of the board state that “Continuing education hours will be accepted by the Department for course work which has been presented, accepted or approved by a nationally recognized acupuncture organization or its local chapter, or any accredited school of acupuncture.“
The NCCAOM is a nationally recognized acupuncture organization. For NCCAOM Approved Courses, please visit the NCCAOM PDA or CEU course page for current listings.
