CE Broker Overview
CE Broker is the new, online portal for CE attestation implemented by the Missouri Dental Board for the current license renewal period, the deadline for which is November 2026. MDA is not the licensing agency and does not have access to view any CE Broker records of licensees. If you have questions, contact the MDB at 573-751-0040.
- This is the CE reporting system for the Missouri Dental Board, not the MDA.
- The MDA had no role in or consultation about selecting this product for CE attestation.
- The MDA is sharing information only to help licensees learn more and participate in the system.
A February 2026 webinar covered:
- How to activate your CE Broker account
- How to report CE
- How to find CE to fulfill your missing requirements
- Benefits of each account
MDA Update
- To assist members, we have created a How-To Guide.
- All CE credits for MDA events and programs held during the current reporting period (11/30/24 to 12/01/26) are/will be included in the ADA Member Portal, and will continue to be updated as MDA CE events occur.
- All CE credits for ADA programs should also be current in your portal.
Activating Your CE Broker Account
- Visit https://cebroker.com/plans.
- Choose the plan best for you and enter your license number.
- Start tracking your CE today.
You will never have to pay for a CE Broker Basic Account, but licensees do have the option to subscribe to an upgraded account, which offers additional CE tracking tools. Key features of the CE Broker account include:
- Digital Tracking: Access your complete course history and check your compliance status any time.
- Course Search: Easily find every course needed to successfully complete your license CE requirements.
- Easy Reporting: Most education providers will automatically report course completions to CE Broker for you, but you can also easily self-report any missing credits by uploading your proof of completion.
- Helpful Support: Access CE Broker’s digital Help Center for a robust library of articles or contact their US-based team of support representatives by email or chat, 8am-8pm EST, Monday-Friday.
Missouri Dental Board Background Information
The Missouri Dental Board (Board)is now using CE Broker as its official continuing education (CE) management system. The MDA reported on this change in a recent magazine article.
Pursuant to rule 20 CSR 2110-2.071(4), licensees must report CE documentation to this system prior to license expiration or during the renewal process.
Section 332.181, RSMo, has always required that dentists “submit satisfactory evidence of completion of fifty hours of continuing education” in order to renew. Up until now, there was not a practical way for licensees to submit copies of their CE with the renewal. The only way of monitoring compliance with the CE requirements was to have licensees attest to having completed the CE requirement on the renewal and then conduct audits after the renewal to check for compliance. With that process, the Board only had the manpower and resources to audit a small percentage of licensees for compliance (usually around 5 percent). With the implementation of the new Professional Registration licensing system, MOPRO, Missouri licensing boards gained the ability to monitor CE compliance at the time of renewal. Licensees will now be able to submit the evidence of completion of the required hours as outlined in the law (through CE Broker).
The Board has worked with CE Broker to resolve some issues that were occurring, but if anyone has any problems establishing their account, you’re encouraged to contact the Board office, and staff will try to walk you through it. In particular, the Board said many of the calls have been related to entering a license number incorrectly.
As a reminder, the Rule states the time block for reporting is “a two-year period with starting dates of December 1, 2002, through November 30, 2004; December 1, 2004, through November 30, 2006; and repeating in this sequence from that date.” Therefore, licensees have close to a year to add/convert their CE to this new system for the current reporting period (due/ending November 30, 2026). The Rule also states that to renew a license, each dentist shall submit satisfactory evidence of completion of 50 hours of CE (and each dental hygienist 30 hours) during the two-year period immediately preceding the renewal period.

Questions
Will the AGD automatically share my CE records with the Board? This is where I track and store all my CE records. Board reply: The AGD may automatically report their CE credits to CE Broker — many of the largest providers do. However, those arrangements are between CE Broker and CE providers. There will not be any direct integration between AGD and the Board. Licensees should set up their CE Broker account and check with their CE providers to see if they report directly to CE Broker. If not, the licensee will be required to provide the CE documents to CE Broker.
