In general, California chiropractors need 24 total CE hours annually, including 2 hours of Ethics/Law and 4 hours in specific techniques/billing/exam procedures, with up to 12 hours online, due by your birth month; these must be from Board-approved providers for renewal.

Effective as of January 7, 2025 the CA State Board of Chiropractors has approved the offering of Live CE courses to be offered via an interactive and participatory Zoom/Webinar Format

Getting Started (Pre-Meeting)

• Run a Quick Tech Test:
  Visit zoom.us/test to verify your speakers, microphone, and camera are functioning before your call.
• Download the Latest App:
  For the best experience, download the Zoom Workplace desktop client or mobile app rather than using a browser. Keeping it updated ensures access to the latest 2026 features.
• Set Your Display Name:
  Before joining, confirm your name is spelled correctly and includes any relevant titles or pronouns to help others identify you.
• Join Early:
  Aim to join 2–5 minutes before the start time to troubleshoot any last-minute connection issues or software updates.

Essential Controls & Etiquette

• Mute by Default:
  Always join with your microphone muted to avoid introducing background noise.
• Maintain “Virtual” Eye Contact:
  Look directly at your camera lens while speaking instead of at participants on your screen.
• Use the Space Bar to Unmute:
  Hold down the Space Bar for temporary unmuting (Push-to-Talk).
• Leverage the Raise Hand Feature:
  Use the Raise Hand icon (found under “Reactions”) to signal questions or comments without interrupting.

Professionalism & Environment

• Choose a Neutral Background:
  If your space is cluttered, use a blurred background or a professional virtual image.
• Minimize Multitasking:
  Avoid typing loudly, checking emails, or eating on camera—these behaviors are very noticeable.
• Optimize Lighting:
  Position light sources in front of you (such as a window) rather than behind you to avoid appearing backlit.
