✅ 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, it is accepted for Texas Nursing License Renewal and can be used toward general continuing nursing education hours.

This makes it a great option for Texas nurses who want a simple, affordable online CE course while also strengthening their knowledge of chronic disease management and best practices for long-term patient care.

✅ Who Should Take This Course?

This course is a good fit for Texas RNs, LVNs, and many APRNs who want continuing education in chronic disease management, patient-centered care, risk reduction, medication safety, and coordinated support for patients with long-term illnesses.

It is especially helpful for nurses who:

✅ Need general CE hours for Texas renewal
✅ Want a course accepted for Texas Nursing License Renewal
✅ Care for patients with diabetes, hypertension, COPD, heart disease, and other chronic conditions
✅ Want practical strategies for education, case management, and long-term care planning

✅ Texas Nursing License Renewal Requirements

Texas nursing licenses generally renew every 2 years. For many Texas nurses, renewal includes completing 20 contact hours of continuing nursing education every 2 years, unless the nurse qualifies through an accepted certification alternative. Texas BON’s renewal information also points nurses to Board Rule 216 for the full continuing competency requirements.

Because Texas BON recognizes continuing nursing education approved by other state boards of nursing, courses approved by the Florida Board of Nursing can count toward Texas renewal as general CE when they fit your renewal needs.

APRNs may have additional role-specific requirements, so this course may be one part of an APRN’s total renewal plan.

✅ When Do Texas Nurses Have to Renew?

Texas nurses usually renew every 2 years. After the first renewal, the license typically expires on the last day of your birth month, so your renewal deadline is based on your individual license cycle rather than one single statewide date.

That means it is always smart to complete your CE early and avoid last-minute stress before your renewal deadline.

✅ Step 3: Log in to the Texas Nurse Portal and complete your renewal application. Texas BON states that renewals are completed through the Texas Nurse Portal.
