The designer is responsible for maintaining records to be used to support credits claimed. Records should include date of activity, instructor's name, description of activity, number of contact hours and location. The designer is required to keep their records of professional development covering the cumulative time in the current renewal period plus the two years before the last renewal. All professional development records and supporting documentation must be furnished to the board upon request.

If an audit disqualifies credits that were reported to the board by a designer and results in the licensee failing to complete the PDH requirements, the board may require the shortage to be made up over a period of time established by the board.
