Offender-management board reduces continuing-education hours in temporary and pending rules

House Judiciary, Rules and Administration Committee · March 17, 2026

Summary

The committee approved a temporary rule (and later a pending rule) from the Offender Management Board to reduce continuing-education hours for certain certified evaluators and providers; the agency said the changes align with other licensing boards and reduce regulatory burden.

Nancy Boley, GRAMA manager for the Offender Management Board, told the committee the temporary rule (docket 57-0101-2501) reduces continuing-education requirements for private licensed individuals certified by the board and incorporates updated standards and guidelines by reference. "The adoption of this temporary rule reduced a regulatory burden by reducing the number of continuing education requirements for private licensed individuals who are certified by the SOB," she said.

Boley said the adjustments match other licensing boards' reduced requirements and that negotiated rule-making and public outreach occurred in April 2025 with no outstanding objections. The committee approved the temporary rule and later approved the pending rule with an early effective date of sine die to match Senate actions.
