Adds supervisor-specific continuing-education notes to your reminders when they apply.

The schedule

Five reminders. None you have to set up.

  1. When your renewal window opens

    The first reminder arrives as soon as you can renew.
  2. 60 days before expiration

    A second nudge while there's still time to finish continuing education.
  3. 30 days before expiration

    One month out.
  4. 14 days before expiration

    The last reminder before the date.
  5. Once after expiration, if it lapses

    If your license expires, you get one more email so you can fix it.

For supervisors

Share SparkHours with your associates

You don't need a SparkHours account. Share it with associates who track hours toward licensure, then sign their weekly logs from the email we send you.
