What is one of the exemptions from completing continuing competency hours?

  1. Having a busy work schedule

  2. Living in a rural area

  3. Residing in a foreign country for at least 1 year

  4. Not practicing PT for the year

The correct answer is: Residing in a foreign country for at least 1 year

One of the possible exemptions from completing continuing competency hours is residing in a foreign country for at least 1 year. This is because it may be difficult for a physical therapist (PT) to maintain their continuing education requirements while living abroad due to different licensing and educational requirements in different countries. The other options, while they may be valid reasons for not completing continuing competency hours, do not fall under the official exemptions listed by the American Physical Therapy Association (APTA). This includes a busy work schedule, living in a rural area, and not practicing as a PT for the year.
