What must be submitted along with a renewal application to the Department?

Renewal applications for licenses, such as those required for the New Jersey Certified Assisted Living Administrator, generally necessitate the submission of a licensure fee. This fee is essential for processing the application and ensuring that the renewal is valid. Licensing agencies use these fees to fund their regulatory activities, which may include overseeing continuing education, compliance checks, and other administrative functions that maintain the standards of assisted living facilities.

The inclusion of fees as part of the renewal process helps maintain the integrity of the licensing system by ensuring that only applicants who are serious about maintaining their credentials are allowed to continue practicing. While other options may be relevant in different contexts, such as fulfilling training or providing references, they are not mandatory components of the renewal application for licensure.
