(See next question for details.)<\/p><p class=\"mb-05\">Per the Americans with Disabilities Act and Ohio law, disabled individuals are permitted to bring assistance animals into most public places. These regulations include the following provisions:<\/p><ul class=\"mb-0\"><li class=\"mb-0\">Disabled means blind, hearing-impaired, deaf, and\/or mobility impaired<\/li><li class=\"mb-0\">Assistance animal means any animal that aids someone who has a physical or mental impairment which substantially limits one or more major life activities (e.g., walking, seeing, hearing)<\/li><li class=\"mb-0\">Assistance dogs may be brought into public places, provided that:<ul><li class=\"mt-05 mb-0\">The dog may not occupy a seat on public transportation<\/li><li class=\"mb-0\">The dog must be leashed<\/li><li class=\"mb-0\">Any dog in training to become an assistance animal should be covered by liability insurance<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li class=\"mb-0\">You cannot be charged an additional fee for your service animal, but you can be held financially liable for any damages it causes.<\/li><li class=\"mb-0\">Public facilities are allowed to ask if your animal is a service animal and which tasks it is trained to perform. They cannot, however, ask detailed questions about your disability or animal.<\/li><li class=\"mb-0\">Public facilities are permitted ask you and your service animal to leave if it threatens the health or safety of other patrons.<\/li><li>Keep in mind that neither federal nor Ohio law recognizes emotional support animals as &#8220;assistance animals,&#8221; which means that public facilities are not required to admit them.

There are additional workshops and seminars (such as the all-day RECOVER CPR lab) that offer extra hours to certain registration groups.<\/p><p><strong>Virtual MVC. <\/strong>The amount you may earn by participating in the Virtual MVC varies by state. In Ohio, veterinarians can earn 18 of their 30 hours online, and technicians may earn 6 of their 10. If you are licensed outside of Ohio, please check with your state&#8217;s licensing board to determine how many hours of online CE you can use toward license renewal and whether presentations need to be viewed live rather than pre-recorded.
