✅ Who Should Take This Package?

This package is designed for:

• Newly licensed Nevada RNs and LPNs, who need both courses even in their first renewal period
• Nurses who have not yet completed the one-time bioterrorism course
• Nurses who already have their other hours and need the required topics

✅ Does This Package Satisfy the Nevada Requirement?

This package provides both courses Nevada requires of new licensees: the 4 hours of cultural competency and DEI (NRS 632.343(3)(c)) and the one-time 4-hour weapons of mass destruction course (NRS 632.343(3)(b)). The 8 hours also count toward the 30-hour total.

Nurses past their first renewal period still need 22 more hours; the 30-hour package includes everything.

✅ Nevada RN and LPN Continuing Education Requirements

Nevada RNs and LPNs must complete 30 contact hours of continuing education every two-year renewal period (NRS 632.343(1)). 1st Choice CE is approved by the California Board of Registered Nursing, Provider Number CEP 18292. Under NAC 632.355, a course from a provider recognized by another board of nursing is deemed approved in Nevada, and the Nevada State Board of Nursing confirmed in November 2026 that our courses are accepted.

• Renewal CE: 30 contact hours every 2 years (NRS 632.343(1)); nurses in their first renewal period after graduation are exempt from the 30 hours, but not from the two required courses below
• Cultural competency and DEI: at least 4 hours every renewal period, counted within the 30 (NRS 632.343(3)(c))
• Weapons of mass destruction (bioterrorism): a one-time course of at least 4 hours, completed within 2 years after initial licensure (NRS 632.343(3)(b))
• HIV stigma and bias: 2 hours within 2 years of starting work, only for nurses who provide or supervise emergency care in a hospital or primary care (NRS 632.343(3)(e))
• Contact hour: 60 minutes of participation (NAC 632.040)
• Certificates and audit: certificates show the course, provider, approving body, date, your name and license number, and hours; keep them 4 years and the bioterrorism certificate while licensed; the Board audits at random (NAC 632.340)
• Reporting: 1st Choice CE does not report your hours; you attest to your CE on the renewal application in the Nevada Nurse Portal

How this course helps: This 8-hour package covers Nevada's two required courses for new licensees. Add other approved hours to reach 30 when the 30-hour requirement applies.

✅ When Do Nevada Nurses Renew?

Nevada licenses renew every two years on the nurse's birthday (NAC 632.192). Online renewal opens 60 days before your expiration date in the Nevada Nurse Portal.

When you renew, you attest that you completed your continuing education. Nevada is not a Nurse Licensure Compact state, so every nurse practicing in Nevada needs a Nevada license.

There is no grace period. A license not renewed by its expiration date expires, and an additional late fee applies to renew afterward.

✅ How to Renew Your Nevada Nursing License

1. Check your expiration date. Your license expires on your birthday every two years; renewal opens 60 days before.
2. Complete your CE. Finish all 2 courses in this package (8 contact hours); add other hours to reach 30 if the 30-hour requirement applies.
3. Keep your certificates. Save each certificate for 4 years, and your bioterrorism certificate for as long as you are licensed.
4. Renew online. Log in to the Nevada Nurse Portal and complete the renewal application, attesting to your CE.
5. Pay the renewal fee. Pay online and save your confirmation.
6. Respond if audited. If the Board audits you, send your certificates promptly; failing to respond within 30 days is unprofessional conduct.
