Who Should Take This Course?

• It is especially helpful for nurses who:
• Need general CE hours for Texas renewal
• Want a course accepted for Texas Nursing License Renewal

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.

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.

That means your renewal deadline is based on your individual license cycle, so it is always smart to complete your CE early and avoid last-minute stress.

• Step 2: Finish this course online and download your instant certificate
