Texas BON recognizes continuing nursing education approved by national nursing organizations, their affiliates, and other state boards of nursing, which is why courses approved by the Florida Board of Nursing can be accepted for Texas nursing license renewal. Texas BON also requires nurses to complete at least 2 contact hours in nursing jurisprudence and nursing ethics before the end of every third two-year licensing period.

Designed for busy professionals, this course is 100% online and self-paced. You can log in and out any time without losing your progress, finish on your schedule, and download your instant certificate as soon as you complete the course. This is a simple, affordable way to complete jurisprudence and ethics hours with a course approved by the Florida Board of Nursing and accepted for Texas nursing license renewal.

✅ Accepted for Texas Nursing License Renewal

Texas BON recognizes continuing nursing education approved by other state boards of nursing. Because this course is approved by the Florida Board of Nursing and provides 2 contact hours in nursing jurisprudence and ethics, it fits the Texas BON framework for accepted continuing nursing education and matches the 2-hour jurisprudence and ethics topic requirement Texas nurses complete before the end of every third renewal cycle.

This course is not separately approved by the Texas BON, but Texas BON does accept continuing nursing education approved by other state boards of nursing. That gives Texas nurses a clear and practical way to use this course toward their renewal needs.

✅ Who Should Take This Course?

This course is ideal for Texas RNs, LVNs, and many APRNs who want a focused course on nursing law, ethics, scope of practice, delegation, documentation, professional boundaries, reporting duties, and other high-risk legal issues that affect patient care. It is especially helpful for nurses who need jurisprudence and ethics hours for their Texas renewal cycle.

For most Texas nurses, renewal generally involves completing 20 contact hours of continuing nursing education every two years or meeting the Board’s accepted certification option. Texas BON also requires 2 contact hours in nursing jurisprudence and nursing ethics before the end of every third two-year licensing period. APRNs may have additional targeted CE requirements based on role and population focus, so this course may be one part of an APRN’s total renewal plan.

✅ Texas Nursing License Renewal Requirements

Texas nursing licenses typically renew every 2 years. Texas BON states that nurses may demonstrate continuing competency by completing 20 contact hours of continuing nursing education during each two-year licensing period, and it separately requires at least 2 contact hours in nursing jurisprudence and nursing ethics before the end of every third two-year licensing period.

After the first renewal, a Texas nursing license typically expires on the last day of your birth month every 2 years. Texas BON also instructs nurses to complete and submit renewal through the Texas Nurse Portal.

✅ When Do Texas Nurses Have to Renew?

Texas nurses usually renew every 2 years, and after the first renewal, the expiration date is typically the last day of the nurse’s birth month. That makes it important to complete your CE before your individual expiration date rather than waiting for a single statewide deadline.

If you are not sure when your renewal is due, check your Texas Nurse Portal early and finish your CE before the deadline so you are not rushed at renewal time. Texas BON also sends renewal reminders, but the nurse remains responsible for renewing on time.

✅ How to Renew Your Texas Nursing License

✅ Step 1: Complete the CE hours required for your Texas renewal cycle, including jurisprudence and ethics when it is due. Texas BON requires 20 contact hours every 2 years for many nurses and 2 contact hours in nursing jurisprudence and ethics before the end of every third two-year licensing period.

✅ Step 2: Finish this course online and download your instant certificate for your records.

✅ Step 3: Log in to your Texas Nurse Portal and complete your renewal application. Texas BON instructs nurses to submit renewal through the portal.

✅ Step 4: Keep your completion certificate with your records in case you need proof of completed continuing education.
