I think that the key phrase in the law is "that meets or exceeds the requirements of this subdivision". Since an online course no longer meets the requirements in NH any certificate obtained online in other states wouldn't meet or exceed the NH requirements.

That also explains why online certificates issued in other states before 1/1/07 do qualify since the NH law also allows them.

Please correct me if I misinterpreted this.
