Annual Learning
Unit Requirement:
All active AIA members
must successfully complete 18 learning unit
(LU) hours each year, with at least 8 of
the 18 LU hours relating to health, safety,
and/or welfare (HSW).
- A member who fails to meet the annual
requirement will be given a one-year grace
period. Any credit earned in the following
year will apply toward the deficit. During
the first nine months of the grace period,
members are able to report retroactively
any activities that were completed in
the previous year.
- A member who exceeds the annual requirement
may carry up to 18 LU hours (including
eight hours of HSW) over to the next year.
Carryover credit can be used for one year
only; it is not cumulative. Only the number
of credits needed to fulfill the annual
requirement for the following year may
be carried over. Extra credit may not
be carried past the one-year limit.
NOTE: Most state
licensing boards do not allow carryover
and deficit credit. States have strict continuing
education timeframes, and credits must be
earned within them. Currently, 28 states
require mandatory continuing education.
