50 hours every 2 years
The Division's renewal application (form 08-0077, rev. July 31, 2025) says licenses are issued for two years and expire on December 31 of even-numbered years regardless of the issue date; a license issued within 90 days of that date runs to the next one. 12 AAC 40.200(a)(1) requires an average of 25 credit hours for each year of the previous license period, so 50 hours for a full period; only hours awarded within the period count (the current period is January 1, 2025 to December 31, 2026). Hours do not carry over.
