Yes, I believe the continuing ed is mostly a salve for the regulating body and legislators that the professionals are “staying current.”

It is tougher to attend conferences when you’re a solo and have to make a lot of arrangements to attend conferences and no money is coming in while you are away. On an isolated state like HI, it’s harder to just drive over to attend things as well.

I have no idea what recertification exams are like but the specialists I know do seem to study for it quite a bit before taking it. Some are members of societies that meet and discuss cases, journal articles and issues; I think that’s very useful.
