Washington State: Can I get STARS credit for taking the same course/training twice?
You can take the same course or training again for STARS credit if it's a new calendar year. However, STARS hours are not given for duplicate courses and trainings completed within the same calendar year. Credit is only issued once per purchased course/training. If you would like STARS credit for a course or training you have previously taken, you would need to purchase it again.
Washington State: When
can I expect to see my STARS hours in my MERIT account?
At the end of each month, we run reports for each of our trainings on who completed them and then enter credits into the Merit registry. So STARS hours will be entered by the middle of the
following month. For example, for February’s courses we would have STARS hours entered
by March 15th.
