There is a phase-in period for licensees whose next registration period starts during the first three years after January 1, 2015. These licensees will have to complete one hour of acceptable formal continuing education for each month in their registration period after January 1, 2015. Consult the New York State Education Department's Licensed Master Social Workers and Licensed Clinical Social Workers FAQ page for more information about your requirements.
