COVID-19 Virus Announcements

September 11, 2020

At this time, the MCB has suspended the requirement that ethics trainings be live indefinitely. The MCB will accept any ethics training a professional takes until further notice—please just make sure the session has the word “ethics” in the title.

Please be advised that our building is temporarily unable to receive mail and we have opened a PO Box. All mail should be sent to:

Live Trainings: With careful consideration, it has been determined it is best to cancel all upcoming “live” trainings. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are recommending social distancing when possible due to the COVID-19 virus.

The MCB has updated our trainings to an online platform and all upcoming trainings can be found on our training calendar at www.missouricb.com.

Fall Renewals: If you are renewing in October 2020 you will be required to complete all educational requirements for your renewal. However, we are now allowing you to complete online courses to fulfill this requirement—including online ethics.

We understand COVID-19, the coronavirus, has directly affected many of our professionals. Some have experienced a loss in wages, been laid off from their place of employment or have been working from home as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. To ease the financial hardship and difficulties so many of our professionals are facing, we are waiving the 2020 Spring Renewal Late Fees. Please make sure all renewals are postmarked by May 31, 2020, otherwise your credentials will expire. Please contact the MCB office if you need to talk to staff for additional assistance.

Live Trainings: With careful consideration, it has been determined it is best to cancel all upcoming MCB March and April trainings. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are recommending social distancing when possible due to the COVID-19 virus.

Spring Renewals: If you are renewing in April 2020 you will no longer be required to complete all your required educational hours; however, you will still need to provide a copy of your required ethics hours. (You will however be allowed to do online ethics).

These changes are only in effect for this Spring April 2020 Renewal Date. For all future renewal dates including October 2020 you will be required to complete all required educational hours and “live” ethics trainings.
