⚖ How This Course Fits Your NJ License Renewal
New Jersey requires 40 continuing education units per biennial renewal period. Eight of those must be the mandatory in-person Report Writing and Ethics & Rules units; the remaining 32 may be elective courses like this one. This course provides 4 elective CEUs toward your 40-unit requirement.
Authority: N.J.A.C. 13:40-15.14(a) and N.J.S.A. 45:8-78. Inspectors first licensed in the second year of a biennial period complete a prorated 20 units — the same 8 mandatory in-person units still apply.
Requirements Met: Elective — Windows & Doors (4 of 32 Elective CEUs)
This is an elective course — it counts toward the 32 elective units of your biennial requirement. It does not replace the mandatory core: pair your electives with our Report Writing and Ethics & Rules courses (4 CEUs each, in-person) to cover all 8 mandatory units.
