Source read on November 12, 2026: North Dakota Administrative Code chapter 11-02-01 (PDF) on the North Dakota Legislative Branch site, sections 11-02-01-05 and 11-02-01-06. The chapter covers every license the board issues; this page covers the speech-language pathology license only.
Cycle
Licenses renew each year. The renewal application, renewal fee, and proof of continuing education are due before the first day of each year, and a license not renewed by then expires; the rule sets a late window in January before relicensure applies (paraphrased).
What counts
Continuing education means “courses or workshops that contribute to professional development and lead to acquiring and enhancing skills and knowledge required for professional practice” that the board approves or that are certified by the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association or another organization the rule names or the board approves (paraphrased after the quote).
Hardship
The board may extend the deadlines “upon proof of medical or other hardship preventing the individual from meeting the deadlines.”
What this page does not do
It covers the speech-language pathologist license only, and only what the official page or pages named above say. It does not list fees, does not cover school credentials issued by a state education agency, and does not replace the board’s own instructions. Rules change; check the board before you renew.
