The board will award continuing education hours for a published article or book written by a licensee if the licensee complies with this section and the board finds that the act of authorship improved the author's competency as a certified public accountant. To obtain continuing education hours for a publication, the licensee must apply on a form provided by the department designating the number of hours requested and submit it with a biennial renewal application. The author may only receive hours for books or articles originally published within the preceding biennial licensing period. The board will review each submitted application on an individual basis, and will not award a licensee more than 20 hours per biennial licensing period. A licensee applying for publication hours must submit a copy of the publication, an affidavit setting out the number of hours spent in researching and writing the publication, the date of publication, the publisher, and in the case of an article, the periodical in which it appeared. The board may award up to three hours for an article over 500 words that was published in a magazine, journal, newspaper, or other periodical. The board may award more than three hours for a larger publication, such as a book or extensive research article based on the time and effort required to produce the publication.
