Educators in Texas must complete continuing professional education (CPE) clock hours every five years to renew their teaching certificates. Superintendents and principals must complete 200 hours while other educators need 150 hours. CPE clock hours can be earned through activities like workshops, conferences, coursework, online learning, independent study, developing curriculum, presenting, mentoring, and assessment. All CPE providers must be approved by the State Board for Educator Certification to ensure the activities support improving student achievement in Texas schools.

Independent study hours can be earned as an educator conducts any research or study related to pedagogy or content. Candidates should maintain a bibliography of print/audio-visual/web-based or other sources used for CPE credit. For renewal purposes, classroom teachers may claim a total of 30 hours of independent study.
