OBO uses an electronic submittal system. Please use meaningful file names and include one file for each requested item.
You'll need to upload all of the requested documents into the system in order for the course to be reviewed.
Once you log into the system, the request page lists the additional information required to submit a course or surgical observation center for credit--information must be submitted within 12 months after the course presentation to be eligible for OBO credit.
Here are the required documents based on request type:
Course
- Learning objectives (3-4 to describe the anticipated outcomes of the training)
- Powerpoint slides or an itemized outline (1 page per hour)
- CV's for the presenters--not required of licensed health care professionals and university professors
- Sample certificate of completion
- Quiz questions if the course will be provided in a recorded or non-live format. OAR 853-070-0055(2)(f) outlines the number of questions required by CE hours.
Surgical or Clinical Observation
- Brief description of the surgical procedure(s) to be observed
- Sample certificate of completion
- CV for each of surgeon(s)--not required of licensed health care professionals and university professors
- Learning objectives (3-4 to describe the anticipated outcomes of the training)
If you're sponsoring a conference or will have multiple courses, please submit a request for each individual course (even if they are on the same date and will be done consecutively). That allows our licensees to get credit for the courses they attend and carryover hours if they exceed the Board's requirements.
If you have any questions or requests, please email
Shelley.g.Hanson@obo.oregon.gov.
PLEASE USE THE SAME COURSE TITLE ON THE SUBMITTAL FORM AS YOU'LL USE ON THE CE CERTIFICATES. See this sample outline with learning objectives to use as a guideline.
Do not upload zip files. The Board uses Microsoft products and Adobe. If you use another software program for any requested information, please save it as a pdf document.
