Everyone's school-based school psychology license or certificate will expire Sept. 30, 2025 - EVERYONE'S!
- The renewal fee – as set in law – will be $300. This will be required of everyone by Sept. 30, 2025.
- The renewal portal opens extra early in 2025 - April 18.
- Renewal is through a system called eLicense. You should have received an email from SBP in January inviting you to login. If you have not, please contact them as they might have an outdated email.
- When completing your renewal in eLicense, you will be asked a series of yes/no questions related to competencies. You should answer these truthfully and the answers will not impact your ability to be licensed. The board references these for all its licensees when dealing with complaints/investigations.
- Background checks/fingerprinting are NOT required for RENEWAL with SBP, only on initial licensure. Your employer likely requires regular background checks, but you should not pay to send this also to SBP for the sake of renewal.
- You/your employer can look up your active license at psychology.ohio.gov using the License Lookup feature. INSTRUCTIONS
