Do I have to finish the course in one sitting?
No. Your progress saves automatically after every slide. Log in from any device and you'll be exactly where you left off.
Is there a test?
There is no final exam. Each module ends with a short multiple-choice knowledge check, and you need 80% to pass. If you fall short, you'll see which questions you missed and where the course covers each one, and you can try again as many times as you like. The answers and explanations open once you pass.
Why can't I click Next right away?
Continuing education is counted in hours. Each slide has a minimum read time, and those minutes add up to the hours on your certificate. Time spent on the knowledge checks does not count toward the hours.
How many hours do I need?
TBAE requires 12 CEPH every calendar year, each hour directly related to Health, Safety, or Welfare. At least 1 must be in Barrier-Free Design, at least 1 in Sustainable or Energy-Efficient Design, and at least 8 must be Structured Course Study (22 TAC 1.69). This package includes a Barrier-Free Design module and a Sustainable and Energy-Efficient Design module.
Do you report my hours to the board?
No. TBAE does not pre-approve courses, and providers do not report hours to the board. When you renew your annual registration, you attest that you met the requirement (22 TAC 1.69(h)), and the board can ask you for your records. Your certificate is that record.
Does this count toward my Texas renewal?
You are responsible for choosing courses that meet your board's rules. Read them with the Texas Board of Architectural Examiners (TBAE) at tbae.texas.gov if you are unsure.
What does the course cost?
$149.00 for the 12-hour package, one time, everything included. Architecture firms with several architects: email support for group pricing.
How does pay-later work?
Enroll and take the entire course before you pay anything. Pay the one-time fee whenever you like. Your certificate is released once you have both finished the course and paid.
Can I get a refund?
Yes, on request within 30 days of payment, as long as your certificate has not been issued. If you finish the course first and then pay, the certificate is issued immediately, so the fee is not refundable at that point because the service has been delivered. Email support and we'll sort it out.
What do I do after I finish?
Download your certificate from your dashboard. It lists the hours for every module and the total. Keep it with your renewal records for five years after the end of the calendar year you claim it for (22 TAC 1.69(g)).
Which licenses does this course cover?
Architects licensed in Texas.
