Attention State of Texas Licensees:

NOTE: Texas Licensees taking this course(s) for license Continuing Education Units (CEUs) approved by TCEQ please read the following information.

Distance learning training courses repeated “within the renewal period” will not be given additional credit beyond the initial course for that renewal period. The course can be repeated in a different renewal period. Operators seeking additional hours can take a course of a different title for additional distance learning hours. Please read each course’s notes for which licenses get credit and for how many hours. If you have questions please call customer service at 800-723-3811.

TEEX processes the results of the on-line training and submits the completion information to TCEQ twice per month. If your license expires in less than two (2) weeks and you need your CEUs processed more quickly, you should (after successful completion of the course) call TEEX Customer Service at 800-723-3811 with your information and license expiration date so we can process the information to meet your timeline.

You MUST first successfully complete the course for us to process the CEUs. Remember you can check the posting of your CEUs at: My TCEQ Status

Upon successful completion of the course, you will be able to immediately print your certificate of completion to retain as a record of your course completion.
