Continuing Education Courses and Webinars
The WANP is committed to helping you understand and meet your continuing education requirements each year. We aim to offer more than enough continuing medical education credits (including adequate credits in pharmacology and health equity) every year. If you sign up for all of our continuing education offerings each year, we promise you'll have all of your Category 1 credits met (and potentially all of your total CE requirements as well!).
Washington State CE Requirements
Naturopathic physicians in Washington State are required to obtain a minimum of 60 continuing medical education credits every two years. Of these 60 credits, 15 must be in pharmacology. Additionally, naturopathic physicians must complete 2 hours of Health Equity Continuing Education every 4 years. During every 2-year cycle, naturopathic physicians must obtain at least 20 of the 60 required credits from well-established and recognized naturopathic organizations, including the Washington Association of Naturopathic Physicians (WANP), the American Association of Naturopathic Physicians (AANP), the North American Naturopathic Continuing Education Accreditation Council (NANCEAC), and any of the CNME-accredited naturopathic medical schools. During each 2-year cycle, Washington-licensed NDs can obtain up to 40 of the 60 required credits from non-ND and some other state and specialty ND organizations that provide high quality continuing medical education. Up to 5 CE credits per 2-year cycle can be self-guided or non-clinical in nature. Read the full law here.
