Can excess continuing education hours be carried over to the next renewal period?

In the context of Nevada's continuing education requirements for dental professionals, the regulation states that excess continuing education hours cannot be rolled over to the next renewal period. Each renewal period has a specific number of required hours that must be completed for license renewal, and any hours completed in excess of this requirement do not contribute to future renewal cycles. This policy ensures that all practitioners remain current with the most relevant information and practices without relying on previously completed excess education.

The other options address scenarios that are not applicable under Nevada law, such as special provisions for specific professions or conditions under which excess hours might be permitted, but the foundational rule remains that excess hours do not carry over. Hence, the correct understanding of the carrying forward of education hours is reflected in the choice indicating that it is false.
