In each cycle, how many hours are required in ethics, laws, and regulations for physical therapists' continuing education?

  1. 2 hours

  2. 3 hours

  3. 4 hours

  4. 5 hours

The correct answer is: 2 hours

This answer may seem too low as the laws, ethics, and regulations for physical therapists' continue to evolve and it is important for them to stay updated and informed. However, according to the American Physical Therapy Association (APTA), the minimum requirement for ethics, laws, and regulations for physical therapists' continuing education is 2 hours per cycle. This may vary depending on state laws, but the APTA sets the minimum requirement for all physical therapists regardless of their location. Therefore, while the other options may seem like a more reasonable amount of time, 2 hours is the correct answer based on official guidelines.
